Abstract
A system for purifying edible oils includes a plurality of microchannel fiber reactors arranged in series. The edible oils may be first neutralized with an alkali solution and then washed with water to thereby remove impurities such as free fatty acids, mono- and diacylglycerols, phospholipids, glycolipids, trace metals, and unsaponifiable matter. The system allows for continuous, high-yield production of improved quality edible oils.
