• What are the uses of soybean oil residues in a biorefinery?
  • Residues obtained during soybean oil extraction, as well as the ones obtained from refining and from concentration of proteins, can generate products with commercial value and/or be used to provide energy for the biorefinery itself.
  • What is crude degummed soybean oil (cdsbo)?
  • Crude degummed soybean oil (CDSBO) must be refined to produce high-quality soybean oil that is suitable for human use and many industrial uses. The traditional method to refine CDSBO is called caustic refining. This method uses a chemical process to refine CDSBO and produce refined, bleached and deodorized soybean oil (RBD SBO).
  • What is a soybean processing facility?
  • A soybean processing facility, in which refined oil, soy protein concentrate and soy protein isolate are produced, generates residues that if undergo additional industrial operations may result in new products with commercial value.
  • Why does soybean oil quality vary by origin?
  • Soybean oil quality varies by origin. These variations are due to the geographic location where the whole soybeans were grown, storage conditions and handling prior to processing. Variations in the quality of CDSBO can lead to a longer, more costly refining process, while simultaneously lowering refining yields.
  • Can soybean oil refinery waste be recycled to produce biosurfactant?

  • What is the role of vegetable oil degumming process in refining edible oil?
  • Scientific Reports 14, Article number: 4064 (2024) Cite this article The vegetable oil degumming process plays a critical role in refining edible oil. Phospholipids (PL) removal from crude extracted soybean oil (SBO) by the enzymatic degumming process has been investigated in this work.
