Title:
ENZYMATIC DEGUMMING OF UNREFINED TRIGLYCERIDE OIL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/125136
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for enzymatic degumming of unrefined triglyceride oil, said process comprising the following successive steps: a) providing an unrefined triglyceride oil having a phosphorus content of at least 100 mg per kg of unrefined triglyceride oil; b) combining the unrefined triglyceride oil with water, an acid and a phospholipase to produce an oil-in-water emulsion having a pH in the range of 2.5 to 4.5; said phospholipase being selected phospholipase A1, phospholipase A2 and combinations thereof; c) keeping the emulsion at a temperature of 20-90°C for at least 10 minutes; d) introducing a base into the emulsion; and e) separating degummed triglyceride oil from the emulsion. This enzymatic degumming process is extremely effective in removing phospholipids, including non-hydratable phospholipids (NHP), from unrefined vegetable oils and prod degummed vegetable oil in high yield.
