Groundnut Oil Refining Process
Premium Groundnut Oil with Advanced Refining
Groundnut oil, also known as peanut oil, is a premium edible oil extracted from high-quality peanuts. While crude groundnut oil is nutrient-rich, it contains impurities such as phospholipids, gums, pigments, and free fatty acids that impact its flavor, stability, and shelf life. The refining process ensures crystal-clear, pure, and long-lasting groundnut oil ideal for cooking, frying, and industrial use. At Agroprocess Oil Tech Solutions, we design advanced groundnut oil refining plants that maximize yield, minimize losses, and ensure consistent, high-quality output with energy-efficient, eco-friendly operations.
Key Stages in Groundnut Oil Refining
Our groundnut oil refining process is carefully engineered to remove impurities and deliver clear, neutral-tasting oil:
Degumming
Removes gums, phospholipids, and mucilaginous substances using water, acid, or enzymatic methods to improve oil quality.
Neutralization
Treats crude oil with alkali to remove free fatty acids, forming soapstock and producing stable refined oil.
Washing & Drying
Neutralized oil is washed with hot water and vacuum-dried to remove moisture and residual impurities efficiently.
Bleaching
Uses activated bleaching earth under vacuum to remove pigments, trace metals, and oxidation products for clarity.
Winterization (Optional)
Cools oil to crystallize waxes and high-melting triglycerides, preventing cloudiness for salad-grade or refrigerated applications.
Deodorization
Applies high-vacuum steam distillation to remove volatile compounds, odors, and residual free fatty acids, ensuring neutral taste.
Filtration & Polishing
Removes fine particles and residual bleaching earth to achieve clear, bright, and visually appealing oil.
Storage & Packaging
Refined oil is safely stored in food-grade tanks and packaged under hygienic conditions for distribution.
