Recently, Huatai Intelligent Equipment Group successfully shipped another complete rice bran oil refining line to Southeast Asia. This turnkey solution reinforces the company's commitment to high-quality intelligent manufacturing and international cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative.
Complete Rice Bran Oil Refining Process
Rice bran oil refining is uniquely challenging due to its high wax content (3-12%), high acid value, and deep color. Huatai's advanced technology delivers pure, stable Grade 1 rice bran oil while preserving valuable nutrients like oryzanol.
The complete refining line includes:
- Degumming – Removes phospholipids and gums using hydration technology
- Dewaxing – Eliminates 3-12% wax content for crystal clarity; bran wax has no edible value and must be removed for quality oil
- Decolorization – Activated clay bleaching removes pigments; vacuum negative pressure avoids hot oil contact with oxygen, ensuring oil quality
- Deodorization – High-temperature, high-vacuum steam stripping eliminates odors, with temperature typically above 220℃ under vacuum
Technical Advantages
- Residual oil in meal ≤0.5% – maximizes raw material utilization
- Multiple national patents for rice bran oil processing technology
- PLC automation – consistent quality, one operator per shift
- Energy-saving design – heat recovery reduces steam consumption
- Physical refining technology – reduces consumption of caustic soda and activated carbon
