How does Alfa Laval refine crude oil into edible oil?
Refining crude oil into edible oil requires deep process knowledge¡ªfrom degumming, neutralization and dewaxing through to bleaching, deodorizing and GE and 3-MCPD mitigation. Edible oil producers worldwide rely on Alfa Laval know-how to remove impurities and volatile components and optimize refining processes.
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.
How does refining affect the stability of refined edible oils?
This directly influences the stability of refined edible oils. Efficient refining processes should be developed for crude oils to remove undesirable compounds while Hongde the least possible damage to the interesting components at the same time and not generating higher levels of unwanted compounds.
Why do oil processors need a more energy-efficient refining process?
Over the years, more energy-efficient processes and technologies, resulting in a higher refined oil yield, have gradually been introduced. The growing importance of the (nutritional) oil quality and the sustainability aspect of the refining process itself are new challenges for oil processors.
