  • Patent number: 4275089
    Abstract: The method of degumming vegetable oil to produce an improved, degummed oil and gum with improved storage and other properties, which method includes extracting the gum with a solvent, stripping the gum from the solvent by steam under a relatively low vacuum, i.e., between 0 and 28 inches of Hg (mercury) below atmospheric pressure, and then centrifuging the gum in a desludging-type centrifuge without further addition of water. The gum thus obtained may be mixed with at least 15% acidulated fat to produce a pumpable, stable liquid having high value as an animal feed supplement.
