Components of Edible Oil Refinery Machine
 

The main components of edible oil refining equipment include refining tanks, decolorization tanks, filters, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems, etc. According to different operating methods and processes, edible oil refining equipment can be divided into three types: Batch edible oil refining equipment, semi-continuous edible oil refining equipment and fully continuous edible oil refining equipment. Each type of edible oil refining equipment has its own advantages, and you can choose the right equipment according to your actual needs.

 

Batch Edible Oil Refining Equipment
Batch edible oil refining equipment is a kind of equipment with simple and convenient operation and relatively low investment cost. It is suitable for frequent conversion of various oil products. The main components of edible oil refining equipment for batch include oil refining tank, decolorization tank, filter, vacuum system and heat transfer system. In the batch edible oil refining process, raw oil is first stored in refining tanks and impurities and fatty acids are removed through a degumming process. Next, acidic substances are removed through deacidification treatment. Finally, through the filter and adding bleaching earth and other decolorizing agents, the decolorizing effect is achieved, the pigment and impurities in the original oil are removed, and clear and transparent edible oil is obtained. The vacuum system provides the necessary vacuum environment for the decolorization and deodorization stages, and the heat transfer system provides the required heat for the crude oil in each process. In summary, batch edible oil refining equipment improves the quality and purity of raw oil through a series of processing steps.

Crude Oil Refinery Machine

Semi-Continuous Edible Oil Refining Equipment
The main components of edible oil refining equipment for semi-continuous includes refining tanks, decolorization tanks, filters, deacidification and deodorization towers, fatty acid tanks, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems. Compared with batch edible oil refining equipment, semi-continuous edible oil refining equipment has moderate investment and lower oil loss, so it is widely selected. Semi-continuous equipment is added to the deacidification and deodorization tower and fatty acid tank to achieve continuous deacidification and deodorization processes. Semi-continuous edible oil refining equipment combines the characteristics of batch and fully continuous edible oil refining equipment to improve production efficiency and product quality. In the process flow, the raw oil is first degummed in the refining tank, and then enters the decolorizing tank for oil decolorization, and the filter is used to filter fuller's earth for decolorization. The deacidification and deodorization tower realizes the continuous deacidification and deodorization process, while the fatty acid tank is used to collect the fatty acids generated during the deacidification stage. The vacuum system provides a vacuum environment for the decolorization and deodorization sections, and the heat transfer system provides heat for each section of crude oil.

 

Fully Continuous Edible Oil Refining Equipment
Fully continuous edible oil refining equipment adopts continuous production at each stage, which has the advantages of small production consumption, low oil loss and more stable quality of refined oil. The main components of edible oil refining equipment for fully include refining tanks, centrifuges, decolorization towers, filters, deacidification and deodorization towers, fatty acid tanks, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems. Different from the first two types of equipment, the fully continuous edible oil refining equipment introduces a centrifuge to separate soap stock. The decolorizing tower is used to decolorize oil products, and the filter is used to filter fuller's earth for decolorization. The deacidification and deodorization tower realizes the continuous deacidification and deodorization process, while the fatty acid tank is used to collect the fatty acids generated during the deacidification stage. The functions of the vacuum system and heat transfer system are similar to the first two devices.

Working Process of Edible Oil Refinery Machine

 

 

Edible oil refining is the collective name for a series of processes to remove solid impurities, free fatty acids, phospholipids, gums, waxes, colours, odours, etc. from vegetable oils. There is a standard refining process to produce high-quality edible oils. This is because it is important for an oil refining plant to ensure that they produce high quality oil products at all times.

 

Degumming
This is the first stage in the edible oil refining process. It involves the removal of impurities from the crude oil. These impurities are mostly phosphatides, which are also known as gums. Crude oil extracted from sunflower seed, rapeseed, and soyabean contains a large amount of phosphatides. It is important to remove the "gums" because they have emulsifying properties. If not, the oil will become thermally unstable and can decompose.

Neutralizing
This is the next process after degumming. It is sometimes referred to as deacification refining. In this process, alkalis such as caustic soda help to remove fatty acids from the oils. The reaction of caustic soda and fatty acids causes soap stock to form at the bottom of the container for easy removal.

Bleaching
Here, the oil is mixed with clay adsorbent. This helps to remove the color that crude oil has. The process also helps to remove contaminants such as residual gums and soap stock, chlorophyll, trace metals, and oxidation products. For the bleaching process to be effective, there are several factors to take note of. They include equipment type, temperature, adsorbent properties, contact time, moisture, and vacuum.

Deodorization
In this process, the oil passes through a high-vacuum steam and high-temperature distillation process. Doing this properly will remove volatile materials and off-flavors. Deodorization also removes fatty acids that remain after the neutralization process. This leads to the production of high quality edible oils with a long shelf life.

 

Winterization
This process is also known as the dewaxing process. It is a thermo-mechanical process to crystallize the solid particles left in the oil. A crystallization agent is added to the oil and allowed to cool. After crystallizing these particles, mechanical separation helps to remove them. This process is usually done on cotton and sunflower seed oil.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Edible Oil Refinery Machine?

A: An edible oil refinery machine is an oil refinery machine meant especially for edible oils. This means that the machine processes different types of edible oils on an integrated platform by carrying out a set of simultaneous processing on the food oils.

Q: What types of oils can be refined with this Edible Oil Refinery Machine?

A: The Edible Oil Refinery Machine is designed to handle various types of crude oils, including palm oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil, and more. It performs several refining processes in a batch mode, allowing for flexibility and control over the refining process.

Q: What is the process of edible oil refining?

A: ●Hydration degumming: Hydration degumming refers to the use of phospholipid and other colloidal impurities hydrophilicity, in crude oil stirring while adding a certain amount of water or electrolyte dilute solution, so that the colloidal impurities in crude oil water absorption, swelling, agglomeration, separation degumming method. In the process of hydration and degumming, phospholipid is the main substance that can coagulate and precipitate except protein, mucus and trace metal ions.
●Alkali deacidification: All unrefined crude oils contain a certain amount of free fatty acids. The process of removing free fatty acids from crude oils is called deacidification. Deacidification methods include alkali refining, distillation, solvent extraction and esterification. Alkaline refining and steam distillation (physical refining) are widely used in industrial production.
●Adsorption decolorization: Oil adsorption decolorization is the use of some substances (such as bleached soil, active clay, activated carbon, etc.). It has strong selective adsorption for pigment, adsorbing impurities such as pigment in oil under certain conditions, so as to achieve the purpose of decolorization. The oil treated by adsorbent can not only improve the color of the oil, remove the colloid, but also effectively remove some trace metal ions and some substances that can cause poisoning of hydrogenation catalyst, thus providing a good condition for further refining (hydrogenation and deodorization).
●High temperature deodorization: High temperature deodorization is a process of removing abnormal odor substances by steam distillation under high temperature and high vacuum by taking advantage of the difference in volatilization of odor substances in fats and triglycerides. The principle of steam distillation deodorization (also known as stripping) is that water vapor through oil containing odor components, vapor liquid surface contact, water vapor is saturated with volatile odor components, according to its partial pressure ratio escape, so as to achieve the purpose of eliminating odor components.

Q: What is the typical oil yield percentage of Edible Oil Refinery Machine?

A: The typical oil yield percentage with our refineries varies depending on the oil's characteristics. For instance, in the case of soybean oil, from 100 tons of oil, you can expect a yield of around 98%, although this can range from 95% to 98%, depending on the specific nature of the oil.

Q: How does the degumming process work?

A: This process removes the phospholipids (lecithin or gums) from the oil. It involves washing the oil with water (which may contain other ingredients such as phosphoric acid or metal-sequestering agents) to cause the phospholipids to precipitate from the oil.

Q: What is neutralization in oil refining?

A: Neutralization is a step in the edible oil refining process that removes free fatty acids (FFA) present inside crude vegetable oils. The process neutralizes the FFA by an alkaline solution and converts the acids into soaps, which are easily removed by decantation or centrifugal force. Effective alkali refining calls for reliable neutralization systems to remove the free fatty acids and gum residues that make edible oils acidic and prone to oxidization.

Q: Why is bleaching necessary in edible oil refining?

A: Preceded generally by degumming and refining (neutralization) processes, bleaching is required to remove specific detrimental contaminants that are not effectively removed by these processes before the oil progresses through deodorization.

Q: What does deodorization do in oil refining?

A: Deodorization is usually the last stage of the marine oil refining process. The main purpose is to remove volatile compounds, such as secondary oxidation products, responsible for undesirable off-flavors. These may originate from the crude oil or formed via primary oxidation products during processing.

Q: What is the difference between batch and continuous refining?

A: Batch processes work by starting with a particular volume of feed stock that is processed to completion. Then another volume can begin processing. Continuous processes work by having feed stock added gradually to the process at a more or less constant rate over an extended period of time.

Q: How does an edible oil refinery machine handle different oil qualities?

A: Large-scale cooking oil refining involves neutralization, phospholipid removal, and filtration. Smaller scale oil refining aims to remove hydratable and non-hydratable phospholipids and filter particulates. Acid wash with citric acid precipitates hydratable compounds, and additional refining processes may be used.

Q: What is winterization in edible oil refining?

A: Winterization is an oil refinement technique commonly used in biotechnology. The process involves dissolving the extract in ethanol, then placing the mixture in a freezer to chill. The cold allows for the separation of compounds by differences in their melting and precipitation points.

Q: What is maintenance method of edible oil refinery machine?
