  • What percentage of soybean oil is recovered by water degumming?
  • The amount recovered by water degumming varies depending upon the oil quality but will usually be 2.5 to 3.0% of the crude soybean oil degummed. Lecithin processing and utilization are covered in detail in Chapter 10. Soapstock, or refining byproduct lipids, consists of soap, neutral oil, phosphatides, and some unsaponifiables.
  • Is acid water degumming a biocatalytic step in edible soybean oil refining?
  • This work focused on the treatment and the biocatalytic transformation of the waste residue coming from the acid water degumming, one of the first steps in edible soybean oil refining.
  • What is degumming in soybean oil?
  • Simply stated, degumming is the process used to remove phosphatides, or gums, from crude soybean oil. As shown in Table 10.1, the gums obtained from degumming consist of a mixture of soybean oil and phosphatidyl compounds ( 1 ). The chemical structures of the three major phosphatides are shown in Fig. 10.1. Fig. 10.1.
  • What are the by-products of refining soybean oil?
  • Refining of soybean oil, to make a neutral, bland-flavored, and light-colored oil, results in several by-products. The by-products consist of various mixtures of phosphatides, unsaponifiables, glycerides, free fatty acids, and soap. Lecithin contains mostly hydratable phosphatides, together with some free fatty acids and neutral oil (glycerides).
