BACKGROUND Heightened awareness of the health benefits of fish oil consumption has led to a great increase in the number of fish oil supplements available to the consumer. Therefore manufacturers are continually looking for ways to distinguish their products from those of competitors. Minimally refined or virgin fish oils provide a unique feature; however, petroleum hydrocarbon contamination fr...

in this study,oil was extracted from the liver and visceral fat of patin (pangasianodon hypophthalmus) and refined. the yield of oil after refining was 49.98%. the major yield loss (34.20%) happened during the degumming procedure. fatty acids found in the crude and refined oil were c12:0, c14:0, c14:1, c16:0, c16:1, c18:0, c18:1, c18:2, c18:3, c18:4, c20:0, c20:1, c20:4, c20:5, and c22:6. the d...

Erosion is one of the important unlikely problems in oil refining industry that produces many damages and values to refining parts. In other part stop of refining operation for repairing is very expensive. Many erosions are happened in refining operations when equipments are placed to atmosphere, Powerful acids, eruption gases, hydrocarbon vampires and high temperature make very complex situati...

Current data on refinery products: LPG, mogas, naphtha, aviation fuel and Kerosene, gas/diesel oil, residual other total products, products. Countries covered: Canada, the United States, Japan, Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Kingdom. Average production is thousand barrels per day. Updated a monthly basis. crude oil runs.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are natural constituents of the human diet; however, dietary intakes of these fatty acids are below recommended values. The main dietary source of DHA is fatty fish, with lesser amounts provided by shellfish, marine mammals, and organ meats. The addition to traditional food products of refined oils produced by marine micro...

In this article, denaturing with aniline and refining process of the oil responsible for toxic oil syndrome is briefly reviewed. The aspects considered include description of conditions of the main refining steps in relation to aniline derivatives formation, with special focus on the deodorization stage. In this last step of the refining process, an increase in the temperature, applied to such ...

This study compared the profiles of fatty acids, phytosterols, and polyamine conjugates in conventional commercial corn oil extracted from corn germ and in two ‘‘new-generation’’ corn oils: hexane-extracted corn fiber oil and ethanol-extracted corn kernel oil. The fatty acid compositions of all three corn oils were very similar and were unaffected by degumming, refining, bleaching, and deodoriz...

the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of various refining processes’ conditions on conjugated dienes in soybean oil. conjugated dienes contents of soybean oil were found to undergo reduction in neutralization and bleaching steps while being increased in deodorization. it was observed that alkali refining (neutralization) through 12 and 14 °bé, bleaching with either acid ac...

Bentonitic material from South Aswan, Egypt was evaluated in terms of mineral-ogy and chemical composition as bleaching clay in refining of transformer oil before and after acid activation and thermal treatment followed by acid leaching using HCl and H2SO4 for different contact times. Structural modification and refining power of bento-nite were investigated during modification by means of X-ra...

Oil from brebra (Millettia ferruginea) is the potential raw material for biodiesel production. The refining of crude oil requires a series of purification steps to produce quality biodiesel. The objective of the study was to produce refined oil from brebra seed for biodiesel production. Crude oil extraction was carried out using mechanical press and solvent extraction methods. Impurities of the...
