Increasing of the Vegetable Oils Purification Efficiency in an Electromagnetic Field

This scientific research is about obtaining high quality vegetable oil using electromagnetic treatment. Conducted studies of the sunflower oil hydration process using electromagnetic processing let intensify the deposition of impurities, reduce energy costs and improve product quality without the use of reagents that used in standard technological process. The main parameters of the technological process in which sunflower oil is purified have been determined. The most significant results were an energy consumption reduction by 6% and a processing time reduction by 50%. During the process, the electromagnetic field strength is about 155 kA/m, and the oil temperature does not exceed 55°C. The design of the installation allows you to avoid areas of local overheating.
