FAT SPLITTING
Oil/Fat that is triglyceride of Fatty Acid contain 3
molecules of fatty acids. These are replaced by Hydroxyl group of water.
The splitting reaction of oil and water takes place under high
temperature and pressure. Three hydroxyl (OH group) 0f water added to
triglyceride under high pressure and temperature then three molecule of
Fatty Acid and one molecule of Glycerol is manufactured.
FATTY ACID DISTILLATION
The crude Fatty Acid obtained from Splitting contains
odourifarous and colouring matters. These are removed by Distillation at
high temperature and Vacuum. The distillation column is in built with
structure packing and higher capacity fatty acid condensation system.
SWEET WATER TREATMENT PLANT
Sweet water received from Fat Splitting is clear
liquid it contains traces of Fatty Matter these are removed by acidic
treatment.
SWEET WATER CONCENTRATION PLANT
Treated sweet water concentrated in triple effect
evaporators. These evaporators are Cylindrical in shape with conical
bottom. The treated sweet water is heated under Vacuum into these
evaporators to convert sweet water into 80 to 85% Purity Crude glycerin.
GLYCERINE DISTILLATION
The Crude glycerine is distilled under high Vacuum.
After distillation, the glycerine is cooled down to bleaching
temperature. The bleaching is done by passing through the fixed batch of
carbon, then glycerine is filtered and cooled down to required
temperature.
HYDROGANATION
Hydrogenation which is also called fat modification,
is unique 3 phase system of Solid (Catalyst), Liquid oil and gas
(Hydrogen). The addition of Hydrogen at double bond of Fatty Acid
convert the unsaturated fatty acid into saturated Fatty Acid. The
special design of Autoclave results in lowest consumption of Hydrogen
gas and produces light colour Hydrogenated product.
