How does edible oil refining reduce production costs?
In edible oil refining, the continuous effort to reduce overall production costs is mainly achieved by increasing plant capacities, installation of mono feedstock plants, and increasing the degree of automation. Over the years, more energy-efficient processes and technologies, resulting in a higher refined oil yield, have gradually been introduced.
Can edible oil-based nanomaterials be used in industrial applications?
Before realizing the industrial application of vegetable oils, the abovementioned problems need to be solved in a timely and effective manner. In addition, the preparation of edible oil-based nanomaterials and their synergy with other active ingredients are a focus of future research.
Which industrial technologies are used for vegetable oils’ refining?
The present review aimed at comparing the two main industrial technologies used for vegetable oils¡¯ refining, namely, chemical refining and physical refining. Chemical refining removes free fatty acids by soda neutralization.
What are sustainable process improvements in edible oil refining?
Sustainable process improvements help you avoid loss and optimize the performance of your production system. In edible oil refining unwanted components are removed from the raw oil. Every process step has its own challenges and needs specific actions and process instrumentation. The main refining process steps:
