  • How was wastewater treated from soybean oil refining plant?
  • First, the original wastewater from the soybean oil refining plant was treated by T. fermentans without sterilization, dilution or nutrient supplementation. The removals of COD and oil content were 82.22% and 75.89%, respectively.
  • What is refined soybean oil wastewater (rsow)?
  • The refined soybean oil wastewater (RSOW) has a high concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and contains large amounts of sodium salts from free fatty acids soap stocks, oil, grease, sulfates, and phosphates [ 2 ]. The harmful effluent discarded in its raw form causes substantial impacts on the environment.
  • What happens during the refining process of soybean oil?
  • Large amounts of high-strength organic wastewater are released during the crude soybean oil refining process, which usually includes degumming, deacidification, neutralization, bleaching, and deodorization steps to remove the undesirable components before making the oil available for human consumption [ 1 ].
  • Why is refining crude soybean oil important?
  • Soybean oil is one of the most widely used edible oils in the world. With the improvement in standards of living and changing diets, the demand for quality edible oil is increasing. Thus, refining crude soybean oil is a necessary step in the production of soybean oils.
  • Can oleaginous yeasts convert refined soybean oil wastewater into lipids?
  • Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative The release of refined soybean oil wastewater (RSOW) with a high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and oil content burdens the environment. The conversion of RSOW into lipids by oleaginous yeasts may be a good way to turn this waste into usable products.
