Abstract: Process for deodorizing triglyceride oil comprises passing dry steam through the oil, the oil being at a temperature between 160.degree. and 280.degree. C. and under a pressure of between 0.1 to 8.0 mbar and condensing by indirect condenser means a vapor phase having a Reynolds number less than 2300 and comprising steam, volatile materials from the oil and less than 100 mg neutral oil per m.sup.3 of steam when measured under the conditions prevailing in the headspace above the oil. The condensate can be solid or liquid form. In either case the condensate can be readily removed from the condenser.

Abstract: A process for producing a mixture of triglycerides displaying butter-like properties by fractionating fats with a liquefied gas or a gas under supercritical conditions. Said mixture of triglycerides predominantly consists of triglycerides with a carbon number ranging from 24 to 42 and can be used as one of the fat components of a margarine fat blend in order to improve its butter-like properties.
