  • What technologies are used in vegetable oil refining?
  • Some review articles were devoted to describing refining process and technology involved as well as its effects on refined vegetable oils with an emphasis on chemical composition [23 ¨C 26]. The present review aimed at comparing the two main industrial technologies used for vegetable oils¡¯ refining, namely, chemical refining and physical refining.
  • How does refining affect the stability of refined edible oils?
  • This directly influences the stability of refined edible oils. Efficient refining processes should be developed for crude oils to remove undesirable compounds while doing the least possible damage to the interesting components at the same time and not generating higher levels of unwanted compounds.
  • What is crude oil refining?
  • Treatment that eliminates undesirable and toxic components in crude oils is known as ¡°refining¡± . Refining is practically mandatory for crude oils that cannot be consumed as virgin oils to provide a product with an attractive appearance, a neutral taste, and more resistance to oxidation.
  • Why is degumming important in vegetable oil refining?
  • Degumming is a crucial step in the refining process of vegetable oils . It allows the elimination of ¡°gums¡± or ¡°mucilage,¡± composed mainly of phospholipids from the crude oil as well as compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, and trace of metals [9, 34]. Phospholipids or phosphatides are naturally present in oils.
  • What is chemical refining of oil?
  • Chemical Refining of Oil Chemical refining is the traditional method used since ancient times. It can be used for all fats and oils even when they have been slightly degraded. Each step of the refining process has specific functions for removing some undesirable compounds.
  • What are the disadvantages of refining oil?
  • Although refining extends oil shelf life, it has several disadvantages. One of the main disadvantages is the loss of substances responsible for healthy, pharmaceutical properties and technological interest in the oils, such as tocopherols, phospholipids, squalene, polyphenols, and phytosterols [5, 18].
