  • Publication number: 20230399578
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of efficiently separating solid fat from polyunsaturated fatty acid grease. The method comprises adding a certain amount of inert material to the polyunsaturated fatty acid grease, and cooling crystallization, and then filtering through a filter to obtain clarified polyunsaturated fatty acid grease. Afterwards introducing hot gas through the filter to make solid fat adsorbed on a filter cake in the filter dissolved and then recycling it through a filter plate. Inert solid substances can be applied next time. The method of the present invention can be efficiently separated saturated and low-saturated fatty acids from polyunsaturated fatty acid grease. In the process, the winterization crystallization time is short, the crystallization is complete, the crystal separation is easy. It will not cause some solid fat melted and thus re-enter the filtrate due to long separation and blowing dry in conventional process. The yield of final product is high up to 89.8%-97.8%.

  • Publication number: 20230397630
    Abstract: A method of efficiently separating solid fat from polyunsaturated fatty acid grease (PFAG) comprises adding a small amount of inert material to the PFAG, and cooling crystallization, and then adding a certain amount of inert material under stirring, and filtering to obtain clarified PFAG, at the same time collecting a filter cake, heating and dissolving the filter cake, and then filtering, recovering a filtrate to obtain a solid fat. The method can be efficiently separated saturated and low-saturated fatty acids from PFAG. In the process, winterization crystallization time is short, crystallization is complete, the crystal separation is easy. It will not cause some solid fat melted and thus re-enter filtrate due to long separation and blowing dry in conventional process. The yield of final product is high up to 96.3%-98.2%. After winterization, a lipid clarity of PFAG is good, and no crystal precipitation would occur at 0° C. for 5 hrs.
