Soybean -Field – damaged, wetharvest condition, mold, etc. can produce oil high in chlorophyll
Drying -Rapid drying couldactivate phospholipase D as well as lipoxygenase
Storage -Storage temperature > 40°C or a moisture content > 11% can activate enzymes
Cracking -
DehullingTempering -
The seeds are mostvulnerable to cracking
Enzyme activitycontinues duringthis process
Flaking -
Hexaneextraction
-
Desolventisation
Crude oil -
Extreme exposure of surfaceoccursExtended exposure to air cancause reactions from lipoxy-genase and phospholipase D
Can extract some of theproducts of reaction intothe oil
Peroxidation can occurduring storage

Conclusion
Acid degumming processes options for normal crude oil quality
Soft degumming an option for proper predegummed oil
Enzymax process a very good option if the availability of the enzyme is given
Heat treatment of seed should be a good option, the results with normal seedquality are excellent
Ultrafiltration process needs development work

Bleaching earth consumption depends on:
Kind of oil
Quality of the crude oil
Specification of finished oil
Physical or chemical refining
Bleaching earth quality

Dr.-Ing. Ernst W. MünchLipPro Consulting
Conclusion
The oil after a proper process is stable and safe
- free of pesticides, PAH, etc.- free of heavy metals- no odor, neutral taste- low chlorophyll content- high tocopherol content- meet the specifications
We need for the process:
- bleaching earth- steam- water- for poor qualities of crude oils in addition chemicals, enzymes
