Title: Gangben Zeng and a VE Enrichment System

Introduction

Gangben Zeng is an inventor associated with Shanghai, China, and Jj-Lurgi Engineering Equipment (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. His disclosed invention focuses on improving the recovery of fatty acid distillate with higher vitamin E (VE) content during vegetable-oil deodorization.

Latest Patents

The provided information identifies one patent associated with Zeng: the VE Enrichment System. 1 patent is listed in the supplied data.

The system includes a falling-film heat exchanger, a deodorization tower, a deodorizer transfer pump, a post-stripping deodorization tower, a high-pressure steam heater, and a fatty-acid collection unit. The heat exchanger has two shell-side sections: its lower section connects with the deodorizer, while its upper section connects with the steam heater and post-stripper. The post-stripper’s bottom outlet returns to the heat exchanger’s tube side, and its vapor outlet connects to the fatty-acid collection unit.

The arrangement creates two process loops: one involving the heat exchanger’s upper shell section, the steam heater, and the post-stripper, and another involving the lower shell section, the deodorizer, and its transfer pump. A vacuum ejector may also be added as operational needs require. The system is intended to produce more fatty-acid distillate with higher VE content during vegetable-oil deodorization.
