Applications
Edible oil refining process and instrumentation solutions
In edible oil refining unwanted components are removed from the raw oil. Every process step has its own challenges and needs specific actions and process instrumentation. The main refining process steps:
Degumming: Remove of phosphatides from vegetable oil
Neutralization: Remove free fatty acids from crude oils by using caustic soda or lime
Bleaching: Remove impurities and coloring pigments
Deodorization: Remove substances that have a negative influence on odor, taste and color
Onze ervaring in de praktijk
Endress+Hauser offers a deep industry expertise and knowledge to offer you the right process instrumentation. Every refining process step requires permanent monitoring of critical parameters to ensure a continuous high product quality. A wide range of process instruments for measuring and monitoring temperature, pressure, flow, color and turbidity assure your product quality.
Discover a complete product portfolio for temperature measurement like compact thermometers, modular thermometers, thermowells, measurement inserts and transmitters.
Choose the flowmeter best suited to your process needs from our comprehensive product basket.
Rely on our pressure measurement with a wide range of sensor technologies that perfectly suited for any kind of application.
The loading, unloading and storage of raw material and edible oil requires detailed information regarding quantities and volumes. It all starts with the delivery of raw material to produce edible or vegetable oil. At the end of the production the edible oil requires an optimal inventory management.
Onze ervaring in de praktijk
Our radar-based measurement instruments continually and precisely monitor the fill level in the storage tanks and silos, regardless if the raw material is delivered in solid or liquid form.
Rely on Micropilot FMR67 with 80GHz technology for highest demands in bulk solids level measurement.
Use Micropilot FMR62 for level measurement in aggressive liquids or applications with hygiene requirements.
From pressing to finished edible oil, the raw oil passes through various temperature ranges to ensure product quality. In the deodorizing step, the process temperature rises to as high as 240 °C.
Onze ervaring in de praktijk
Endress+Hauser offers a wide range of temperature measurement instruments for all process requirements, from simple compact thermometers to modular temperature transmitters.
Choose the temperature instrument best suited to your process needs from a comprehensive product portfolio. In most of the quality related applications we recommend our thermometer iTHERM Moduline TM131.
Safely monitoring pressure and vacuum in the vessels
Ceramic measurement cells are a proven technology for maintaining the proper vacuum level in the vessels during the process.
Onze ervaring in de praktijk
Thanks to a vacuum-proof ceramic measurement cell with integrated breakage detection membrane, our Cerabar pressure transmitter ensures a high degree of process safety . The Quick Setup feature with configurable measuring range allows simple commissioning, reduces costs and saves time.
Explore our digital pressure transmitter Cerabar PMC51.
Flow and volume monitoring even in demanding applications
Flowmeters are used to reliably monitor the transfer of the raw oil within the individual process steps.
Onze ervaring in de praktijk
As a result, loss can be detected and prevented in order to maintain the yield at a constantly high level. In addition, highly precise Coriolis flowmeters are used to control the dosing of process enhancers, operating materials and additives, thus ensuring product quality.
Benefit from simultaneous measurement of mass flow, density, temperature and viscosity thanks to Coriolis flow measurement.
Discover Proline Promass F 300, the Coriolis flowmeter with premium accuracy, robustness and an ultra-compact transmitter.
Avoid process interruptions by permanent diagnostics, verification and monitoring thanks to Heartbeat Technology. It ensures a cost-efficient and safe plant operation during the entire life cycle.
