Efficient gum removal and higher oil yield

Access more oil than you thought possible

Staying competitive in the vegetable oil processing industry means you have to constantly optimize processes, reduce costs and extract maximum value from the feedstock. But with the existing water degumming or alkaline refining process, you rarely manage to achieve more than 95% of oil yield.

We believe it’s time to think beyond traditional processes and recover extra oil that’s hiding in plain sight.
