| TINYTECH Cooking Oil Refinery Plant |
Tinytech Cooking Refinery Plant is a durable, reliable and robust unit for getting the ready to use cooking oil. Cooking oil refining is an important process which is carried out after the oil is extracted from oil mill machinery and oil mills. The output of oil mill is treated as the input for the Tinytech cooking oil refinery plant. |

| What is Cooking Oil Refining?? |
Cooking Oil Refining is a method to remove unwanted and undesirable elements like Free Fatty Acids (FFA), Gums, Phospholipids, Waxes, Soaps, Odor and Color etc. from the cooking oil and to improve overall quality of cooking oil. The entire process is carried out in various steps such as Degumming, Neutralizing, Bleaching, Dewaxing, Winterizing and Deodorizing. |

| Description for Cooking Oil Refining Process- |
| |
| Degumming Method |
| |
This is the first step in refining and is also known as the Pretreatment Process. In the degumming process, the gums are precipitated and separated by the centrifugal separation technique. If the gum content in the oil is low, only gum-conditioning is required to be done and there is no need to go for separate degumming process. The degumming can be carried out in the same neutralization vessel. |
| |
| Neutralizing Method |
| |
Every cooking oil consists certain amounts of free-fatty acids FFA's that increase the rancidity in oil and is harmful for human consumption. In neutralization, the FFA's are removed by reacting them with caustic soda- NaOH in the neutralizer at a certain temperature and performing the stirring. In this way, FFA gets separated in the form of soap stock. Tinytech offers neutralization units. |
| |
| Bleaching Method |
| |
The color pigments in the oil are removed in the bleaching process. The neutralized oil is treated with certain chemicals like activated earth which removes the color from the cooking oil. This process is also carried out under temperature. The bleached oil is then filtered so that the added chemicals and particles are separated from the oil. |
| |
| Deodorizing Method |
| |
The deodorization is an important process in the cooking oil refining. This process is used to remove the odor from the oil. Every oil contains certain typical natural color. During the previous processes, certain unwanted odor is applied on the oils. The deodorization process removes this odiferous material. It is carried out under high temperature and vacuum systems. At the completion of the process, we get the deodorized-odorless cooking oil.
For sunflower oil and corn oil, separate dewaxing process is carried out and for palm oil; separate fractionation process is carried out.

| Batch Type Cooking Oil Refining Process |
The batch type refining method is the oldest and the most widely used method for chemically refining of cooking oils. This type of oil refining process is used for smaller capacity refinery plants from 3 tons/day to 30 tons/day. The batch type process is generally preferred because it has low cost, low effluent generation, easy maintenance and easy to operate making it economically more viable. Numerous TINYTECH batch refinery plants are operational at various places refining different cooking oils. |

| |
| Continuous Type Cooking Oil Refining Process |
The continuous oil refining line is used for capacities higher than 30 tons/day and up to 500 tons/day. This method is used for where the cooking oils contain higher FFA content. Though this process line is expensive, it provides automation along with low processing costs and superior quality refined oil.
Having years of experience in the cooking oil refinery plants and oil refining sector, TINYTECH UDYOG can supply the cooking oil refinery plants with both the process lines with successful erection, installation and project execution to get the excellent refined oil at the output.
