Physical refining

Gain more value in your physical refining process

Our enzymatic deep degumming solutions provide higher yields and a more sustainable process.

Increase yields and valuable by-products

For refineries starting from crude or degummed oil, enzymatic deep degumming can increase your yield by up to 1.5% while reducing phosphorus levels. 

Our solutions convert non-hydratable phosphatides into fully hydrated lysolecithin during gum removal and use less chemicals in the process. At the same time, you can expect higher levels of valuable by-products like tocopherol and distilled free fatty acids (FFA)

    A safer and more sustainable process

    Our phospholipase A1 enzymes enable a robust, stable and flexible process that you can use on crude and degummed oil. They reduce the need for hazardous chemicals to improve safety at your plant. They’re also readily biodegradable.

    Reduce water, energy and bleaching earth

    Chemical neutralization and acidic degumming are resource-intensive processes. That leads to costs for water, gum-drying energy and bleaching earth. Enzymatic refining with our solutions demands less of all these resources. That means significant cost savings for your plant.

Calculate the savings for your plant

With our oil profit calculator, you can evaluate the main steps of your physical refining process and find the combination that will maximize gains and minimize loss. Use the calculator to find out what our solutions could do for your plant.
