Project
/ Edible Oil Refining |
|
|
|
|
|
With decades of cumulative experience and expertise in edible
oil refining, FenixTM covers every step from crude
oil processing to refining of various seed oils. Fenix has
a delivery capacity from single section to a complete refinery. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our range of processes
include: |
|
|
|
|
|
Degumming |
|
|
|
Water degumming |
|
Process to remove phosphatides from seed oils by precipitation
with water and centrifugation - a method commonly used
for seed oils. |
|
|
|
Acid degumming |
|
Process to remove phosphatides from low grade oils
containing non hydratable phosphatides by acid treatment,
precipitation with water and centrifugation. |
|
|
|
Special
degumming |
|
Process of removal of gums
and other impurities via precipitation and centrifugal
separation, applied for physical refining of oils. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Acid conditioning |
|
|
Treatment of oils with acid,
prior to neutralization and bleaching or physical refining |
|
|
|
|
|
Neutralization |
|
|
Removal of free fatty acids, gums by centrifugal separation,
after reaction with caustic lye, followed by water washing
and separation of residual soap. |
|
|
|
|
|
Dewaxing |
|
|
Dewaxing by in situ crystallization and centrifugal separation
of the crystallized waxes along with soap stock. |
|
|
|
|
|
Bleaching |
|
|
Removal of color pigments, oxidized components and residual
gums via absorption in bleaching clay followed by filtration
of the spent earth. |
|
|
|
|
|
Deacidification |
|
|
Removal of substantial quantities of free fatty acids during
physical refining along with volatile impurities also results
in deodorization especially for high FFA Rice Bran Oil or
Crude Palm Oil. |
|
|
|
|
|
Deodorization |
|
|
Removal of residual free fatty acids and other volatile impurities
by steam distillation under high vacuum. |
|
|
|
|
|
Fat Modification Processes |
|
|
|
|
|
Dry Fractionation |
|
|
Generating high and low melting fractions from one feedstock
via controlled cooling and crystallization, followed by filtration
using membrane filters - process applied for RBD Palm Oil. |
|
|
|
|
|
Hydrogenation |
|
|
Highly energy efficient system
for production of Vanaspati or Hydrogenated fat. |
|
|
|
|
|
Inter esterification |
|
|
Process to modify the fat structure using Sodium Methoxide
catalyst to produce bakery shortenings. |
|
|
|
|
|
By-Product Processes |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lecithin
drying |
|
Drying of wet
gums recovered from water degumming of soya oil. |
|
|
|
Soap stock
splitting |
|
Splitting of soap stock from neutralization, to recover
crude fatty acids (acid oil) via reaction with mineral
acid, followed by settling and separation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other Plant Modifications |
|
|
|
Capacity increase of existing
refineries |
|
Converting seed oil processing
plant to Physical Refining Plant |
|
Training of plant personnel
on safely and optimization of process and Audit |
