About Deodorization Plant

The Deodorization Plant is used for a process of vacuum stripping wherein a given amount of stripping agent typically steam is passed through the hot oil at low pressure. The Deodorization is a steam stripping process wherein a good-quality steam, generated from de-aerated and properly treated feed water, is injected into soybean oil under low absolute pressure and sufficiently high temperature to vaporize the Free Fatty Acid. The offered Deodorization Plant is very efficient and easy to maintain.

FAQ's of Deodorization Plant:

Q: How does the deodorization plant remove odors and impurities from edible oils?

A: The deodorization plant utilizes high temperatures (220C to 260C) and a strong vacuum (< 2 mmHg) across multiple stages (2-4) to strip odors, free fatty acids, and volatile components from vegetable oils. Steam is used as a heating medium to enhance the removal process, ensuring pure and neutral-flavored oils.

Q: What types of edible oils can be processed in this deodorization plant?

A: This plant is versatile and suitable for refining various edible oils, including palm oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, and other common vegetable oils. It is tailored for both large-scale industrial production and specialty oil applications.

Q: When should I perform cleaning on the deodorization plant, and how is it maintained?

A: Regular cleaning is essential to maintain product quality and plant efficiency. The plant is equipped with a CIP (Clean-In-Place) system, allowing thorough, automated cleaning after production cycles or as specified by your standard operating procedure, reducing manual intervention and minimizing downtime.

Q: Where can this deodorization plant be installed, and what installation formats are available?

A: The plant is available in both skid-mounted and field-erected formats, offering flexibility for installation within existing refineries or new processing facilities. Dimensions and configurations can be customized based on production capacity and space requirements.

Q: What is the main benefit of using a PLC-based control system in this plant?

A: A PLC-based control system provides advanced automation, precise control over processing parameters, and easy integration with computerized monitoring. This results in higher consistency, lower labor costs, and the ability to quickly adjust operations to meet various production needs.

Q: How does the plant ensure energy efficiency during operation?

A: The plant operates using steam as its primary heating source, with optimized process parameters and insulation (8-12 mm steel body) to minimize heat loss. Automatic controls and staged heating further contribute to reduced energy consumption without compromising oil quality.
