Fatty acid composition of secondary products of oil and fat production

Abstract

Purpose. To determine the content of fat and fatty acids of total lipids in fat and oil production secondary products: in pressed powder, hydrofuse, bleaching and adsorption clays and deodorization distillate. Methods. In the process of the research, general scientific methods were used: deduction, scientific hypothesis and abstraction. For the laboratory research, the following methods were used: zootechnical analysis, liquid chromatography, spectrophotometry, titrimetry. Methods of variation statistics were used to process the obtained experimental results. Results. Indicators of lipid and fatty acid composition of by-products of fat and oil production were determined. It has been established that wastes of fat and oil production are highly nutritious products: the content of crude fat in pressed powder is 65.45%, in the hydrofuse – 68.11%, bleaching clay – 66.99% and adsorption clays – 27.05%; contains essential fatty acids – linoleic (from 0.52 to 57.77%) and α-linolenic acid (from 0.01 to 0.02%). The total amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids in pressed powder is 57.79%, in the hydrofuse – 51.19%, in bleaching clay – 0.53%, in adsorption clays – 11.6%, and in deodorization distillate – 3.94% of the total amount of acids. Among the group of saturated fatty acids, all these products contain palmitic (from 0.88% to 5.91%), stearic (from 2.80% to 12.01%) and arachidic (from 0.07% to 8.43%) acid. The amount of saturated fatty acids in the pressed powder is 8.66%, in the hydrofuse – 8.87%, in bleaching clays – 9.96%, in adsorption clays – 8.07% and in deodorization distillate – 76.9% of the total acids. Conclusions. Wastes of fat and oil production in their composition contain a significant amount of crude fat, most of the fatty acids are represented by oleic and linoleic acid, which characterizes their quality and biological value as a feed additive for feeding animals and poultry.
