Most of us want to consume food of better quality to live a healthy life, don't we ?. Of course one longs for it. As, we all know that health is wealth. So, how can we play with our life.There goes a proverb along with it, which I could not digest without jotting it down, "If we are living better life then we have the whole world under our feet". Isn't it true friends? Getting good amount of edible oil and better oil refining process is much more important for living a healthy and better life. Thus,let's first know about how edible oil is processed, how oil refining process is carried out and how oil is extracted out from from it. It's important for us to know what kind of oil is being used in our food and how it is prepared as the food we consume can also take our life.

Oil Processing involves different kinds of methods. It's not a one way process. The oil that we use in our day to day life is processed and extracted under various oil refining process. The methods and machines used for it are of larger size. The selection of oil refining process depends on the type and quality of crude oil to be processed.The bottle ...
... of oil that you use in your kitchen is made and processed from large number of plants in big scale, i.e. hundreds and thousands of crude oil which are stored in big barrels are processed in a day and these crude (raw) oil is processed under another oil production plant which later is stored in different barrels after oil refining process is carried out.

There are various types edible oil refinery plants for processing such as fatty acid hydrogenation plants, fatty acid distillation plants, fatty acid dry fractionation plants, oil & fat hydrogenation plants, pretreatment plants, oil and fat splitting plants. For refining the oil, there are three main processes in the refinery system. First process is neutralizing the oil in the neutralizer so that the Free Fatty Acids (FFA) are removed by adding caustic soda. Then, the Oil is heated about 60°C by thermic fluid coils and then the oil is stirred by stirrer.When this process is completed soap stock is formed where chemical reaction is allowed to settle at the bottom of the neutralizer from where it is taken out into soap pan.Then, the neutralized oil is poured into second vessel.After this, dirt of oil is removed and when it's removed bleaching of oil is carried out.Then it's processed under cooler where water circulating coils takes away the heat and the oil is cooled. In the last process of oil refining, again it's kept in the filter where it's completely refined and transparent i.e pure oil is obtained.
