Steam refining and deodorization process of palm oil physical refining process:
In this process, the pretreated oil is purified by three operations conducted under high vacuum at high temperature. First, the fatty acides are removed by multistage countercurrent contact with steam. Then, the pigments are converted to colorless form by retention of the hot oil for the required reaction time. Finally the oil is deodorized by additional multistage countercurrent contact with steam.
