Edible Oil Refinery – MeTL Group
MeTL Group, through East Coast Oils and Fats, boasts 60% of the total market share in edible oil sales from the plant’s 45,000 metric tons production monthly. East Coast Oils and Fats currently has three oil refineries capable of refining 2400 metric tons per day (over 70,000 metric tons per month), a manufacturing line of soaps with an
Sunflower oil has a high nutritional value, having 62-70% linoleic acid content (essential fatty acid) but on the other hand this high polyunsaturated fatty acid content makes this oil sensitive to oxidation. Crude sunflower oil, which has reached a certain level of oxidation is difficult to refine. There are two main difficulties: 1.
Sunflower Oil Refinery Plant Process, Oil Expeller
The steps involved in Sunflower Oil Refining Process: Degumming. Neutralization. Water Washing. Vacuum Drying. Bleaching. De-waxing. Deodorisation. The chemical refining stages of Sunflower oil are also similar to other soft oils except dewaxing which is additional as sunflower oil contains wax which will be removed by dewaxing process.
ming stage of the physical refining process. Karaali ( 1985. showed a lower reduction in the total tocopherol content, in. about 4%. Karaali ( 1985) also studied the effect of chemical

Figure 1 represents schematically the main steps of sunflower oil extraction and refining. There are five main stages where there is a potential leak of minor components: Degumming, neutralization
Sunflower oil has a high nutritional value, having 62-70% linoleic acid content (essential fatty acid) but, on the other hand, this high polyunsaturated fatty acid content makes this oil sensitive to oxidation. Crude sunflower oil which has reached a certain level of oxidation, is difficult to refine.
Optimization of the Physical Refining of Sunflower Oil
The final contents of total and individual trans-fatty acids of sunflower oil, produced during the deacidification step of physical refining were obtained using a computational simulation program that considered cis−trans isomerization reaction features for oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids attached to the glycerol part of triacylglycerols. The impact of process variables, such as
Summary: Physical refining has several advantages compared to the classical chemical one. This process is more economical (improved yield, lower investment cost, less chemicals used) environmental friendly process (no soapstock to be treated, splitted) but more sensitive to the crude oil quality. Physical refining of sunflower oil is discussed
Sunflower oil, Chemical refining, Physical refining
Physical refining is a relatively newer method of oil refinement and consists of three main processes: hydration, bleaching, and deodorization. The key difference between. on Phospholipid and Total Tocopherol Content in Sunflower Oil. chemical and physical refining lies in the removal of free fatty acids.
A sample of RBD SFO, without additives, was received from a local commercial refining plant (Agrimed, Sfax). Fresh basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) leaves were harvested from Sfax province in the center of Tunisia in October 2009. All the chemicals and reagents used were of analytical reagent grade and were purchased from Fluka, or Sigma Chemical Co
