  • How do you treat soybean oil before refining?
  • The addition of the preferred acid treatment to the crude oil in a day tank is a convenient method for pretreatment. Crude soybean oils with a high level of phosphatides are usually treated with 0.05–0.2% of 75% food-grade phosphoric acid, depending on the calcium/magnesium content of the oil, for a minimum of 4–8 h before refining.
  • What is soybean oil refining?
  • Refining of soybean oil is practiced as a purifying treatment designed principally to remove FFA while reducing the phosphatides or gums, coloring matter, insoluble matter, settlings, and miscellaneous unsaponifiable materials. Failure to remove these impurities causes the oil to foam, darken, smoke, and become cloudy when heated.
  • What is soybean oil purification?
  • Soybean oil purification, as used here, refers to the purification processes individually referred to as degumming, refining, bleaching, and deodorization. Each process is designed to remove certain minor components. The product of the purification processes is identified as RBD (refined, bleached, deodorized) soybean oil or soybean salad oil.
  • What is soybean oil (SBO) purification?
  • This chapter describes Soybean Oil (SBO) purification. Crude SBO is composed of triglycerides with oil-soluble and suspended non-glyceride materials (fatty acids, phosphatides, sterols, tocopherols, metals, hydrocarbons, pigments, and protein fragments). Of these, the triglycerides, tocopherols, and sterols each have commercial value.
  • What is soybean oil used for?
  • Soybean oil can be refined using potassium hydroxide (KOH) rather than NaOH. This allows acidulation of the soapstock with sulfuric acid followed with neutralization with ammonia. The acid oil is still used for animal feed or chemical use, and the potassium and ammonium salts in the waste product are used as fertilizer (Carlson, 2006).
  • How is color reduced in soybean oil neutralization process?
  • Color reduction occurs with each process in soybean oil neutralization processing: degumming, refining, bleaching, and deodorization. In fact, the usual color limits for other source oils, Lovibond color of less than 20 yellow and 1 red, are readily achievable without the bleaching process (Erickson, 1995c).
