Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a process for treating vegetable oils for improving their cold stability. This process makes it possible to clarify (for example by dewaxing, wintering) oils and in particular edible oils, such as for example, sunflower oil, corn oil, or peanut oil.
  • the oil is cooled for a few hours to an appropriate temperature, making it possible to obtain crystals which can be separated by filtration.
  • An adjuvant is often used filtration (for example filtering earth).
  • the second method mentioned requires the use of a large quantity of wetting agent solution (5 to 10%) and the use of an expensive separation material and requiring high maintenance costs.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks by proposing a process making it possible to obtain clear oils even from oils having high levels of constituents with a high melting point (waxes, partial glycerides, etc.) without the use of filtration and centrifugation soils.
  • This process is characterized in that, in a first step, the oil to be treated is cooled to a chosen temperature so as to allow the crystallization of the compounds to be eliminated, then in a second step, the oil thus treated is brought into a decanting container and subjected to the action of fine bubbles of a neutral gas which binds to these crystallized compounds so as to produce a foam with a density lower than that of oil.
  • the gas-bubble crystal complex formed rises to the surface of the container, thus making it possible to obtain, at the bottom of the latter, after decantation, a clarified oil having a content of less than 30 ppm of crystals and with a yield greater than 90 %.
  • the performance of such a process essentially depends on the formation of crystals of an appropriate size, a sufficient quantity of fine gas bubbles, in the liquid, and on the adhesion of the bubbles to the solid particles.
  • a small amount of clarification aid is added to the oil to be treated, making it possible to reduce the affinity of the crystals with respect to the oily phase.
  • the oil to be treated is a neutralized oil containing know, the latter fulfilling the function of clarifying adjuvants.
  • the presence of water and active tension (soaps) promotes the adhesion of waxes to air bubbles.
  • the gas-oil contact under pressure is carried out with stirring for a period of approximately 30 min.
  • the method comprises a step of reprocessing the waxes making it possible to recover the oils which are contained therein.
  • the oil to be treated is brought according to arrow A in a cooler 1 comprising an agitator 2.
  • the oil to be treated is brought to the appropriate temperature, chosen according to the type of oil to be treated .
  • the oil is then brought to a ripener 3 where it is kept at the same temperature so as to allow quantitative crystallization of the compounds to be removed, under conditions appropriate according to the type of oil.
  • the oil is also subjected to agitation by means of an agitator 4.
  • the oil is brought along arrow D to the lower part of a decantation container 5 and, it is subjected to the action of fine bubbles of a neutral gas, which attach to the crystals to eliminate so as to produce a gas-crystal complex in the form of a foam with a density lower than that of oil.
  • This complex collects in zone 6 of the container, where it is removed by scraping according to arrow C.
  • the production of fine bubbles of neutral gas is obtained by taking a fraction E of clarified oil which is brought into a saturator 8, where it is subjected to the action of a neutral gas such as air or nitrogen arriving according to arrow F under a pressure between 4 and 10 bars, before being expanded to atmospheric pressure, the duration of the gas-oil contact in the saturator 8 being approximately equal to 30 min.
  • a neutral gas such as air or nitrogen arriving according to arrow F under a pressure between 4 and 10 bars
  • a clarified oil G is recovered, a fraction E of which is recycled to the saturator 8.
  • the flow rate of this fraction can range up to 300% of the flow rate of the oil to be treated leaving the ripener 3.
  • This oil enriched in waxes can be treated by the method according to the invention or by usual methods (decantation, centrifugation, filtration).
  • the starting raw material is a sunflower oil containing 800 ppm of waxes.
  • This oil which has been subjected beforehand to neutralization and contains 0.4% of water and 1080-ppm of sodium hydroxide soap, it is introduced into a 5-liter beaker, equipped with an agitator. , all placed in a refrigerated enclosure at 5 ° C for a period of approximately 10 hours with continuous stirring.
  • This oil is transferred to a saturator of 4 liters equipped with an agitator. The saturator is subjected to a pressure of 10 bars.
  • the contacting time is 30 min with permanent stirring, the oil temperature being maintained at 5 ° C. by a coil located inside the reactor. At the end of this operation, the oil is expanded to atmospheric pressure by direct transfer to a 4-liter beaker. After one hour of decantation at + 5 ° C, a separation of two phases is obtained. At the bottom of the container, approximately 2,850 g of the dewaxed oil are recovered, which now contains only 20 ppm of waxes and 0.1% of water. At the top of the container, about 150 g of foam is recovered, consisting of a wax-fine gas bubble complex.
  • the dewaxed oil can either be subjected to the following stages of refining, or subjected to a new treatment cycle in order to perfect the dewaxing process.
  • the starting raw material is a sunflower oil containing 85 ppm of waxes. We take 3 kg of this oil previously neutralized and containing 0.3% water and 1400 ppm of sodium soap. By applying the method of Example 1, a dewaxed oil is obtained containing 7 ppm of waxes, 0.05% water and 52 ppm of soap. The yield of dewaxed oil is 98.4%.
  • the starting oil is a new sunflower oil marked and discolored, containing 700 ppm of waxes, less than 0.05% water and less than 2 ppm of sodium.
  • the procedure is the same as in Example 1.
  • a dewaxed oil is obtained containing about 60 ppm of residual waxes with a yield greater than 93% of dewaxed oil.
  • the starting oil is a crude corn oil containing 150 ppm of waxes.
  • the procedure is as indicated in Example 1.
  • a dewaxed oil is obtained containing 50 ppm of residual waxes and from which the suspended matters such as mucilages, solid particles, etc. are at the same time partially removed.
  • the yield of dewaxed oil after clarification is therefore 95% and can range up to approximately 98.5%.
  • oils obtained in Examples 1 to 5 are subjected to conventional refining operations as the case may be, up to the stage before deodorization.
  • the samples thus obtained are stored at + 5 ° C for 24 hours or more.
  • An oil containing 1% of waxes from dewaxing foams obtained by the process according to the invention is cooled to 25-30 ° C overnight and then centrifuged.
  • the heavy phase containing the waxes represents 12% of the oil thus treated.
  • the light fraction represents approximately 88% partially dewaxed oil at 400 ppm of waxes, which can be recycled as a mixture with the oil to be treated.
