  • How is crude pressed sunflower oil refined?
  • Crude pressed sunflower oil obtained from a local oil mill was refined using chemical method by degumming, neutralization, bleaching and dewaxing. The quality and composition of crude and refined oil were compared. The phosphorous content, FFA content, peroxide value and wax content decreased during the refining process.
  • Can sunflower oil be refined?
  • An experimental oil refining unit has been developed and tested for refining of sunflower oil. Crude pressed sunflower oil obtained from a local oil mill was refined using chemical method by degumming, neutralization, bleaching and dewaxing. The quality and composition of crude and refined oil were compared.
  • What is the chemical refining process of sunflower oil?
  • Chemical refining process starts with crude oil and is treated for degumming and neutralization, which is followed by bleaching the oil and last it goes through winterizing and deodorizing stages . The detailed process of sunflower oil from its crude oil has been described in Fig. 1.
  • What was the average reduction in sunflower seed oil samples during refining process?
  • Total average reduction for sun?ower seed oil samples during re?n- ing process was 32.9%. The level was about 13.8 mg/100 g in crude sun?ower oil and about 9.2 mg/100 g in re?ned sun- ?ower oil. 2.2 Degumming
  • What are the advantages of Physical refining of sunflower oil?
  • Physical refining has several advantages compared to the classical chemical one. This process is more economical (improved yield, lower investment cost, less chemicals used) environmental friendly process (no soapstock to be treated, splitted) but more sensitive to the crude oil quality. Physical refining of sunflower oil is discussed in details.
  • What is a sunflower oil refining unit?
  • An experimental oil refining unit has been developed for minimal refining of sunflower oil. The unit consists of (i) one open mild steel tank with conical bottom for degumming/neutralization, (ii) one closed oval tank for vacuum drying/bleaching and (iii) one filter for filtration of oil.
