METHOD FOR REFINING AN EDIBLE OIL

摘要

A process for refining an edible oil comprising the steps of: degumming crude oil; subjecting the oil to a heat treatment under vacuum conditions; removing unwanted components; and deodorizing the oil, which process is characterised in that during the heat treatment the oil is substantially free from adsorbent. Even without any use of adsorbent the process may yield an oil with an acceptable colour.
