Patent number: 7727569Abstract: It is intended to provide a procedure for, in the fractionation of vegetable butter, transesterified fat or oil, isomerized hydrogenated fat or oil, etc. without the use of solvents, obtaining high-concentration component G2U (defined below) by concentrating operation through reduction of the amount of liquid component residue in crystal portion. There is provided a method of dry fractionation of fat or oil characterized in that fat or oil (A) containing components G2U and GU2 is fractionated through crystallization/solid-liquid separation into crystal fraction of concentrated G2U (AF) and liquid fraction of concentrated GU2 (AL), subsequently this crystal fraction (AF) is mixed with liquid G2U-containing fat or oil (B) whose GU2 concentration is lower than that of the liquid fraction (AL) and thereafter the mixture is separated into crystal fraction (BF) and liquid fraction (BL).Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2004Date of Patent: June 1, 2010Assignee: Fuji Oil Company, LimitedInventors: Yuji Kuwabara, Nobuaki Kanai, Toshiaki Takahashi, Yoshihiro Yamanaka

Publication number: 20100092646Abstract: A method of enhancing a butter product involves removing all of all, or at least most of, the water content from butter leaving mainly clarified butter and milk solids. The milk solids in the clarified butter are browned and then the milk solids and the clarified butter are cooled. The clarified butter and browned milk solids are agitated once cooled to attain at least, generally uniform consistency. The product is then solidified and packaged. In some forms, an additive can be introduced into the product, preferably before the agitation step. Such additive can include a bulking agent (e.g., safflower oil) and/or a flavor enhancement (e.g., lemon zest).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2008Publication date: April 15, 2010Inventor: Kelly B. Krauss

Patent number: 7695748Abstract: A process of reducing the cholesterol content in cholesterol-containing organic oils or fats, particularly animal oils or fats. The process comprises the steps of: adding at least one of demineralized water and distilled water having a set pH-value to the oil cholesterol containing oils or fats, thereby forming a mixture; and separating the mixture into a cholesterol-containing aqueous phase and a cholesterol-reduced oil or fat phase.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2005Date of Patent: April 13, 2010Assignee: Westfalia Separator AGInventors: Steffen Hruschka, Klemens Geissen, Wladislawa Boszulak

Patent number: 7691270Abstract: A method of removing at least one polar component from a fluid stream. The method comprises providing a fluid stream comprising at least one nonpolar component and at least one polar component. The fluid stream is contacted with a supercritical solvent to remove the at least one polar component. The at least one nonpolar component may be a fat or oil and the at least one polar component may be water, dirt, detergents, or mixtures thereof. The supercritical solvent may decrease solubility of the at least one polar component in the fluid stream. The supercritical solvent may function as a solvent or as a gas antisolvent. The supercritical solvent may dissolve the nonpolar components of the fluid stream, such as fats or oils, while the polar components may be substantially insoluble. Alternatively, the supercritical solvent may be used to increase the nonpolarity of the fluid stream.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2005Date of Patent: April 6, 2010Assignee: Battelle Energy Alliance, LLCInventors: Daniel M.
