  • Continuous production of hydrated lipids
    Patent number: 3993580
    Abstract: Efficient production of high-quality hydrated products from hydratable lipid particulates such as partial glyceride particulates has been obtained continuously. A flow sequence of controlled heating and cooling with intermediate application of smoothing shear stress is involved.

  • Process for tempering beaded fat quickly
    Patent number: 3973053
    Abstract: Polymorphic particulates formed by rapidly chilling molten fatty material to yield an unstable crystal form thereof are formed into a gas-fluidized bed wherein the gas rapidly absorbs heat of transformation of the particulates into a stabler crystalline form, and tempered particulates are withdrawn from the bed. Residual latent heat of crystallization also is absorbed by the gas and the tempered particulates resist appreciable agglomeration under conditions of storage.
