  • What is the first step in refining rice bran oil?
  • In industrial production, rice bran oil is mostly refined by hydration degumming, active clay decolorization, steam deacidification and deodorization, and low-temperature freezing dewaxing. The specific method is to add 2¡ë~3¡ë phosphoric acid and a proper amount of water to treat the crude rice bran oil at 90 °C for degumming.
  • What is rice bran?
  • Rice bran is obtained from outer layer of the brown (husked) rice kernel during milling. It has emerged as potential by-product from rice processing industry due to the increasing demand for rice bran oil (RBO) as healthy functional food ingredients.
  • What are the technologies of rice bran oil?
  • The processing technologies of rice bran oil include degumming, deacidification, dewaxing, etc.. These technologies help refine the oil and maintain its bioactive compounds.
  • How is rice bran oil extracted?
  • Rice bran oil is extracted from rice bran, which contains about 15¨C20% crude oil. The extraction methods include pressing, solvent extraction, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, and enzymatic extraction.
  • Can rice bran be treated with enzymes?
  • Treating rice bran with enzymes is a new oil processing technology. The cell tissue of rice bran is hydrolyzed with protease and then oil is released to achieve the purpose of oil extraction (Hanmoungjai et al. 2001).
  • Can you use rice bran for food?
  • A major problem of using RBO for food purposes is the time lag between bran production and oil extraction. Oil should be extracted immediately as soon as the bran is produced. Otherwise, oil will be hydrolyzed into free fatty acids (FFAs) and glycerol by the action of very active lipase enzymes present in rice bran.
