EDWARD MEAD JOHNSON, JR, OE EVANSVILLE, INDIANA.
PROCESS OF PRODUCING COD-LIVER OIL.
No Drawing.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD MEAD JOHN- SON, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing at Evansville, in the county of Vanderburg and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Processes of Producing Cod-Liver Oil, of which thefollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to a process of producing oils from fish livers, and more parti iularly to a process of producing cod liver 01.
My improved processconsists in rendering cod liver oil directly from livers, withoutthe use of heat, such oil being free from stearine,
Heretofore the process of rendering oil from livers consisted in applying heat, either I or steam j ackby direct steam or hot water, eted kettle. The heat disintegrates the'connective tissue of the cells to burst open and give up their oil. When oil is rendered by such a process, from twenty to thirty per cent-of stearine comes over with the oil,dependin upon the length of time during which heat is applied,
In order to use cod liver oil so rendered for medicinal purposes,-it has been customary to remove the stearine by another and separate procedure. The removal of the stearine has been accomplished by freezing the previously rendered oil at 15 to 18 F. whereupon the stearine in the oil congeals. This stearine is then removed by placing the frozen oil in fine mesh calico or muslin bags. Theoil drips from these bags and the stearine remains behind, provided the freezing temperature is maintained. Such oil, with 1 the stearine removed, is marketed as refined,
non-freezing, medicinal oil. By my improved process, freezin rectly from stearine. v
ThisI accomplish by subjecting the fresh livers to a temperature several degrees below the freezing point and maintaining the livers in a frozen condition until the oil is pressed therefrom.
.By this method, the water in the livers is 'turnedinto ice, the ice cr stals breaking up the cellular structure 0 the livers being treated and putting them. in condition so that when pressure, is applied, the oil can readily flow out. The freezing also hasthe efiect .of solidifying the stearine so that livers and causes the to use, also,
effect 0 retaining in the wing out of the 'oil. initially all of the solid thereby producing an oil the refined, nonmedicinal oil can be produced di-' om the livers, and is initially free Application filed. June 14, 1924. Serial No. 720,125.

' It .is essential tained in frozen condition throughout the process, so that no emulsion will be formed before the pressing that the livers be main in the finished product. It-may be desirable in connection with the press, a fabric or other filtering medium to retain solid particles'while permitting only pure, clear oil to flow therethrough;
My improved method not only produces a relatively large quantity of oil as compared to the uantity of liver fats or stearine, characterized by a lack of smell and taste, and having a desirable lightcolor. If any small quantity ofrecoverable oil be left in.the mass of solids retained in the press or filter after practicing my invention, the same may be recovered by. any well known methods, such as boiling out the pressed residue with water. In such case the oil will separateand come to the surface and maybe removed; It will be un derstood that this oil is not clear of stearine and must bereduced in temperature in order to permit the stearine to be'removed.
