  • How is corn oil refined?
  • The resulting crude oil is further refined with the consecutive steps of degumming, neutralization, bleaching, winterization, and deodorization and refined oils directly used or alternatively processed through hydrogenation, fractionation, and interesterification. Corn oil is slightly yellowish, with a mild and characteristic odor and taste.
  • What is the process of industrialization of corn oil?
  • The process of industrialization of corn oil, in general, is divided into two main stages: the extraction of crude oil which also yields a corn oil cake coproduct and the subsequent refining of the crude oil.
  • What is refined corn oil used for?
  • Refined corn oil is used for frying, salad oils, and as raw material in various lipid modification processes to obtain technical fats. In this way, it shows prominence among vegetable oils, due to its excellent sensorial and nutritional characteristics and good performance in diverse food applications (O'Brien, 2008).
  • What is the future of corn oil?
  • The future of corn oil is promising because more than 1 billion tons of corn kernels are harvested throughout the globe and the extracted oil has good oxidative stability and excellent nutritional attributes and can be further processed into value-added ingredients and food. J. Supercrit.
  • What are the steps in chemical refining of corn oil?
  • In chemical refining, the crude or degummed corn oil is subjected to the steps of neutralization, clarification, winterization, and deodorization, for the removal of FFA, pigments, waxes, and odoriferous compounds, respectively.
  • How is corn oil extracted?
  • Almost all corn oil is expeller-pressed, then solvent-extracted using hexane or 2-methylpentane (isohexane). The solvent is evaporated from the corn oil, recovered, and re-used. After extraction, the corn oil is then refined by degumming and/or alkali treatment, both of which remove phosphatides.
