Deodorization and finished oil handling

Abstract: Deodorization is the final processing step in the production of edible oil products. Chemical/physical aspects of deodorization and mechanical design of deodorizers are explained, including chemical analysis of feedstock, finished product and by‐products. This includes normal operating standards and means of correcting off specification operation. Operating procedures, labor requirements and maintenance are reviewed. Finished oil handling includes use of antioxidants, inert gas addition, pipelines and storage … Show more

“…Odoriferous components are volatile molecules, such as small molecular weight aldehydes and ketones, and in edible oils are usually present in concentrations of a few parts per million (2,18,19). Characterization of volatiles is possible by the use of very sensitive methodologies, both for collection and analysis.…”

“…Deodorization is an important step in edible oil refining aimed at the removal of odoriferous and taste-bearing compounds from the oil. High temperatures cause the breakdown of molecules; the combination of high temperature and low (subatmospheric) pressure aids in volatilization of molecules, which are then stripped mainly by absorption into steam bubbles (1,2). Despite the high efficiency of the current process, it is generally accepted that it is beneficial to process edible oils at low temperatures in order to prevent undesirable effects, such as partial destruction of vitamins and formation of unwanted by-products such as trans isomers and polymers (1,(3)(4)(5).…”

“…This is attractive in several respects: It is easy to design and to operate, has a low investment cost, and is very flexible for product changeovers. However, it also has disadvantages: The times required to process a batch are quite long (e.g., 8 to 12 h, which implies a low productivity) due to poor vapor-liquid contacting efficiency, and the stripping steam consumption per ton of treated oil is high (Gavin, 1981;O'Brien, 2009). At industrial scale, the stripping steam requirement for batch deodorizers is about 2 to 4% of the oil to be treated, whereas continuous and semi-continuous deodorizers need 0.75 to 1.5%, and continuous thin-film systems can operate with as little as 0.3 to 0.6% steam (Carlson, 1996).…”
