Abstract: The present disclosure discloses processes for treating, producing, or producing and treating biodiesel. Products produced with the various processes of the present invention are also disclosed.

Abstract: Structured, non-polar liquid oleogels comprising non-polar liquids and a derivative of an anhydrohexitol are disclosed. Processes for producing such structured, non-polar liquid oleogels are also disclosed. Also disclosed are processes for producing esters of 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitol.

Abstract: A process for producing a food oil containing at least 50% monounsaturated fatty acids from palm oil is disclosed. Fatty acids are released from palm oil glycerides, such as by fat-splitting. The free fatty acids (FFA) are separated to obtain a fraction enriched in unsaturated palm fatty acid. This fraction is subject to a condensation reaction with glycerol to form an oil comprising mainly triglycerides (triacylglycerols). The condensation reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme.

Abstract: Vegetable oils having a low level of glycidol esters are disclosed. Methods for reduction of the content of glycidol esters in edible oils are also disclosed.

Abstract: Vegetable oils having a low level of glycidol esters are disclosed.

Abstract: Vegetable oils having a low level of glycidol esters are disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to improving productivity of an enzymatic method for producing esterified, transesterified or interesterified fats or oils. Specifically, a method that can greatly improve the productivity of enzymatic esterification, transesterification or interesterification by purifying the substrate oil to extend the useful life of the enzyme is disclosed.

Abstract: Vegetable oils having a low level of glycidol esters are disclosed. Methods for reduction of the content of glycidol esters in edible oils are also disclosed.

Abstract: Oil of improved quality is produced by treating the oil with an active substance capable of reducing the anisidine value of the oil. Food products comprising the oil of improved quality are also disclosed.

Abstract: Methods of producing light-color, color stable plant oils are presented. Cationic ion exchange resins have been found to be effective in removing color bodies from plant oils to produce a light-color, color stable plant oil. The methods may be applied to plant oils, including corn oil. Color stable corn oils having a light color are also presented.

Abstract: Fats and oils subjected to modification by enzyme catalysts are pretreated with a granular clay, a combination of granular clay and protein, or a combination of granular clay and granular carbon resulting in improved productivity of the enzyme catalysts when used to modify the fats and oils.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of hydrolyzing glycerol fatty acid ester-containing composition, such as a fat and/or an oil, to produce fatty acids having a low proportion of trans-isomer fatty acids. Specifically, the present invention relates to a process for the hydrolyzing the glycerol fatty acid ester-containing compositions under conditions resulting in a low proportion of trans-isomer fatty acids.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to improving productivity of an enzymatic method for making esterified, transesterified or interesterified products. Specifically, a method that can greatly improve the productivity of enzymatic transesterification or esterification by deodorization alone, or by deodorization and purification of the initial substrate to extend the useful life of the enzyme is disclosed.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of hydrolyzing glycerol fatty acid ester-containing composition, such as a fat and/or an oil, to produce fatty acids having a low proportion of trans-isomer fatty acids. Specifically, the present invention relates to a process for the hydrolyzing the glycerol fatty acid ester-containing compositions under conditions resulting in a low proportion of trans-isomer fatty acids.

Abstract: A process of producing a light-colored, high-monoester mixture from a polyol and an oil is provided wherein the process eliminates the use of organic solvents, multiple water washings and/or molecular distillation. The reactants, a polyol and an oil, described herein, condense in the presence of a catalyst, described herein, at a temperature range from about 180° C. to about 280° C. under an inert atmosphere or the vapor pressure of the polyol with a pressure of about 0 to about 500 psig to yield a monoester mixture possessing a desirable monoester composition and color. The present process yields a final product similar to that of processes which require the use of solvents, multiple water washings and/or molecular distillation.

Abstract: A method for producing 1,3-diglyceride oils from triglyceride containing oils is disclosed. The method uses alkali metal salts or alkali earth metal salts of mono-carboxylic or di-carboxylic acids to drive glycerolysis under conditions such that commercial, food-quality 1,3-diglyceride oils are produced.
