What is Continuous Degumming?

Continuous Degumming is the first stage of the edible oil refining process where hydratable phospholipids, gums, trace metals, and impurities are removed from crude oil. This process improves oil stability, enhances bleaching efficiency, and prepares the oil for further refining stages.

PEMAC Continuous Degumming Systems are designed for:

• Water Degumming

• Acid Degumming

• Special Degumming

• Enzymatic Degumming

Our advanced degumming technology ensures efficient phospholipid removal with reduced oil loss and improved refining performance.

Benefits of Continuous Degumming

• Reduced phosphorus content

• Improved oil quality

• Better bleaching efficiency

• Lower refining losses

• Enhanced oil stability

• Continuous and energy-efficient operation

Neutralizing

Crude oil obtained from expellers or Solvent Extraction Plants often contains unwanted impurities such as mucilage, gums, and unfiltered proteinases from the seed. Through our neutralizing stage, we effectively remove these impurities, ensuring a clean and pristine oil base. Our process includes water degumming, acid degumming, and enzymatic degumming for optimal results.

Bleaching

To further enhance the quality of the oil, our bleaching stage targets any remaining color pigments and contaminants. This crucial step results in a clearer, more refined oil ready for subsequent processing and improved oil color.

Dewaxing

In this stage, we address the issue of waxes present in the crude oil, which can impact the oil's texture and consistency. Our dewaxing process ensures the removal of these waxes, resulting in a smoother, more desirable end product.

Deodorizing

Finally, our deodorizing stage focuses on eliminating any remaining odors and undesirable flavors from the oil. Through advanced techniques, we refine the oil to achieve optimal taste neutrality and aroma, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including high-quality edible oil.

What is Continuous Neutralization?

Continuous Neutralization is the process of removing Free Fatty Acids (FFA) and non-hydratable phospholipids from crude edible oil through controlled caustic treatment. During the process, FFAs react with caustic soda to form soapstock, which is separated using high-speed centrifugal separators.

The neutralized oil is further washed to remove residual soap particles and impurities before passing through a vacuum dryer to eliminate moisture. The refined oil is then transferred to the bleaching process for further processing.

PEMAC Continuous Neutralization Systems ensure:

• Lower residual FFA

• Improved oil color

• Reduced refining losses

• Better downstream bleaching performance

• Consistent refined oil quality

• Higher oil recovery
