Purifine® PLC: Industrial application in oil degumming and refining

摘要

Residual phospholipids in the waterdegummed oil cause additional yield losses in later refining steps, such as removal of free fatty acids, again owing to formation of an emulsion. [...] in traditional oil refining, a major cause of yield loss is formation of emulsion owing to the presence of intact phospholipids, and the extent of yield loss is proportional to the amount of phospholipids present.
