Small scale soybean oil refining machine belongs to batch type edible oil refining machine, the common capacity is 1-10tpd. The 1-10tpd small scale soybean oil refining machine has all the advantages of large and medium-sized edible oil refining machine. Since small scale sunflower sunflower oil refining machine is characterized by low investment, small footprint and easy operation and maintenance, now more and investors are tend to invest in sunflower oil refining business.

1. Degumming:
The process begins with degumming, where impurities such as phospholipids are removed from the crude sunflower oil using water or acid, ensuring improved oil stability.
2. Neutralization:
Next, neutralization takes place to remove free fatty acids from the oil. This step involves the addition of alkali to neutralize the acids, enhancing the oil’s flavor and prolonging its shelf life.
3. Bleaching :
Bleaching follows, employing activated clay or other adsorbents to eliminate colored pigments, unwanted flavors, and odors from the neutralized oil, resulting in a clear and pure product.
4. Deodorization:
Deodorization is conducted under high temperature and vacuum conditions to eliminate volatile compounds that can affect the oil’s taste and smell, ensuring superior sensory qualities.
5. Dewaxing (Optional)
Depending on requirements, dewaxing may be included to remove waxes that can crystallize at lower temperatures, optimizing the oil’s stability in colder environments.
6. Quality Control :
Throughout the entire process, stringent quality control measures are implemented to monitor and maintain the purity, color, flavor, and stability of the refined sunflower oil, meeting industry standards
