Abstract
Fractionation of glyceride oils is effected by cooling under the influence of homogeneous agitation by stirring, particularly by means of a cylindrical stirrer concentric with a chamber containing the oil, with the development of crystalline agglomerates of lower-melting fractions of the oil which are easily separated from the oil by filtration and if desired by washing. Heavy crops of crystal fractions can be separated containing up to 35 wt % solids, for the preparation for example of margarine fats from vegetable fats which may be hardened before or after fractionation.
