Industrial oil degumming process
In the edible oil industry, the removal of impurities such as phospholipids, which can affect the stability and quality of oil, is crucial. Traditional methods can be time-consuming and energy-intensive, creating challenges in both efficiency and output quality.
Optimize oil purity with versatile degumming techniques
The degumming process from Crown Iron Works offers a range of methods including water, acid, enhanced, enzymatic, and cold degumming to effectively remove impurities from edible oils. The MultiPure Degumming/Neutralizing system is particularly noteworthy for its flexibility, allowing easy transitions between different degumming methods by adjusting operating conditions or adding components for enzymatic treatment. Designed with an atmospheric reactor that features variable retention time and agitation, the system maximizes precipitation of nonhydratable gums. Temperature control at each step and a high shear variable speed mixer ensure intensive interaction between oil and reagents. Complete with options for water-washing or special sorbents, this process delivers optimal quality and maximum yield with minimal energy consumption.
