Turnkey Projects for Edible Oil Refinery Plant Process

In its  crude  form , the vegetable oil is permeated  with  impurities. These  must necessarily be eliminated not to not only make it edible, but also to enhance the color, texture and  taste and prevent rancidity. The multi stage  refining process in the vegetable oil eliminates these  impurities & is sufficiently enhanced to attract consumers for its  taste and acceptability to earn greater returns. The crude oil must necessarily undergo the refining process to remove the inherently harmful elements for human consumption including  free fatty acids (FFA), gums, sediments, odoriferous and coloring materials present to make the oil edible.

MECTECH has 360^o capabilities in the area and provides concept to commissioning expertise that ensures not only glitch-free installation but  free flowing vegetable oil production for recurring long term  returns. Mectech relentlessly pursues client delight by ensuring greater returns through extreme customization of plants and optimizing processes. Through inimitable innovation and customization, the company value adds optimization into each process to enhance the processes and returns.

THE PROCESS

The oil needs to undergo the processes of neutralization, bleaching and deodorisation, to be made safe and fit for human intake.

The various steps undertaken for refining vegetable oils are:

Degumming / Neutralization

The process of eliminating the embedded phospholipids in order to enhance its physical stability and facilitate further refining is called degumming. Phospholipids turn the oil lead dark and even off -flavor. Free fatty acids, pigments and other impurities are also partially removed by degumming.

Continuous Bleaching

“Bleaching” is  the  selective elimination  of pigments and impurities through interacting it  physically  and chemically with  an adsorbent in order  to enhance  its quality. It eliminates various impurities like  Color pigments, Dirt, Trace metals, Removal of polycyclic Aromatic compounds, Phospholipids.

Deodorization

In this vacuum stripping process, a given amount of a stripping agent (usually steam) is passed for a given period of time through hot oil at a low pressure. The physical process removes various volatile components.

THE MECTECH ADVANTAGE

 Degumming

Mectech has revolutionized the degumming processes by incremental enhancements. These processes are customized according to the methods of processing, chemicals used and the content of phosphatides in the crude vegetable oil.

Bleaching

MECTECH’s customized design of bleacher eliminates the need for mechanical agitation. Hence bleaching is accomplished under optimum conditions of moisture content to achieve perfect results ensuring  power consumption saving for the entire  system.

With the absence of mechanically agitated bleacher, the quality of oil improves due to lack leakages from gland system.

Also eliminates  maintenance costs arising out of  wear and tear as the  Mectech bleacher is maintenance free.

Mectech’s customized bleacher also ensures that the bleaching earth remains under suspension thus avoiding dead areas, resulting  in lower consumption of bleaching earth.

Due to the  bleaching process being  executed  under controlled parameters, better and consistent quality of resultant oil is guaranteed, that is crucial to its marketability.

DEODORIZATION

The customized Mectech designed oil-to-oil heat exchanger fitted in the last tray of Deodorizer is optimally efficient to ensure minimum heat energy requirement.

The elaborate and efficient design of fatty acid scrubbing recovery system ensures virtually no  transfer  of fatty acid into barometric condenser.

The custom designed heating coil by Mectech prevents charring of oil during the process.

Gain Ascendancy In The Hydrogenation Industry From The Mectech Advantage

Hydrogenation of vegetable oils involves the addition of hydrogen, in the presence of a Nickel catalyst, to the carbon-carbon double bonds present in the fatty acid chains. Hydrogenated vegetable oils have a longer shelf life as they do not turn rancid easily. As they remain fresh they have become the base of fried industry and processed foods like crackers and snacks as these last longer. Moderately hydrogenated oils after the hydrogenation reaction continue to be in the liquid state at room temperature but contain more saturated fatty acids. This finds great use in the food industry as for example margarine manufactured from hydrogenated Oil will be easier to spread and find ready customers than otherwise. Mectech’s innovation and customization at the micro-level at each stage have pioneered the hydrogenation reactor design, hydrogenation reactor equipment and hydrogenation plant for hydrogenation reactor manufacturers of the entire oil and fat industry.  Since its inception in 1980, Mectech has been the turnkey   Hydrogenation Plant Supplier, Hydrogenation Plant Manufacturer; Hydrogenation Technology Supplier, Vanaspati Plant Manufacturer & Vanaspati Plant Supplier.

 THE HYDROGENATION PROCESS

The process of hydrogenation involves addition of hydrogen atoms to the fat molecules, to transform these into a trans configuration. This entails the groups of atoms at each end of the double bond to be on the opposite sides. The unsaturated fat CIS molecules accept oxygen atoms easily and the oxygen the fat breaks down turning the food rancid. Post lipid hydrogenation, the trans resist oxygen atoms and are more immune to becoming rancid. As hydrogenation enables foods to be stored at room temperature for longer periods of time it is a great advantage during shipping and warehouse storage. This process also helps gain more consumers who store food   and eat    later.

Hydrogenation necessitates   the sparing of oil at a high temperature and at high pressure with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. This leads to addition of hydrogen atoms to the double bonds in vegetable oils. As the double-bond dissolves, each of the two hydrogen atoms replaces it with single bond formed by the two existent free carbon atoms. This process of elimination of double bonds by adding hydrogen atoms is known as saturation. If the degree of saturation is made to increase, the oil becomes fully hydrogenated. Unsaturated vegetable fats and oils are thus   transformed through partial to complete hydrogenation into fats and oils with higher melting points and thickness with corresponding increase in usefulness for the industry. Hydrogenation of edible oil & hydrogenation of fatty acids increase    resistance to becoming rancid (oxidation) and the propensity to change   physical appearance due to elapsing time. This proves very useful as the shelf life of end products increase.  Hydrogenated fats today find use in food items like snacks, crackers and biscuits.
