An Oil Refining System is a sophisticated industrial setup that purifies crude vegetable oil, which has been extracted and filtered, to make it suitable for human consumption. This multi-stage process systematically removes undesirable components such as free fatty acids, phospholipids (gums), pigments, waxes, and volatile compounds that can negatively affect the oil's taste, smell, appearance, and stability.
The typical refining process involves several distinct stages: Degumming (removing phospholipids and mucilaginous substances), Neutralization (removing free fatty acids), Bleaching (removing color pigments and trace impurities using bleaching earth), and Deodorization (removing volatile compounds responsible for undesirable odors and flavors through steam distillation under vacuum). Some systems also include Winterization to remove waxes, preventing cloudiness at colder temperatures. Each stage is precisely controlled to ensure optimal removal of impurities while minimizing oil loss and preserving the nutritional integrity of the final product.
