  • Can degumming & dewaxing be used for rice bran oil refining?
  • A new process for the physical refining of rice bran oil through combined degumming and dewaxing was developed on a laboratory scale and then demonstrated on a commercial scale.
  • Why is parboiled rice bran a good choice for dewaxing?
  • It was observed that oils obtained from parboiled rice bran have much easier operation compared to raw bran. The temperature of the place also has an influence on dewaxing parameters. Another important factor is the moisture content of the oil.
  • What is rice bran wax used for?
  • Some industrial manufacturers also used it for oil recovery. However, the recovered oil was utilized for nonedible applications. In addition, a few researchers (Prasad et al., 2008, Prasad et al., 2009) developed a process for the upgradation and bleaching of crude rice bran wax.
  • 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.
  • What is rice bran?
  • Rice bran is a byproduct of the rice milling industry obtained from milling of brown rice to produce white rice. It contains 15%¨C20% of oil. Apart from oil, rice bran is a promising source for proteins, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins, tocopherol, ¦Ã-oryzanol, and phospholipids (Tao, 1989; Houston, 1972; Saunders, 1986).
  • What is deacidification of rice bran oil?
  • Deacidification is the process of removing free fatty acids from crude rice bran oil. This process can be achieved through various methods such as alkali refining, distillation, mixing, re-esterification, and extraction. Among these, alkali refining has comprehensive effects like deacidification and decolorization, but it results in higher refining loss.
