The Challenge
Vegetable oil refining requires removal of suspended solids, protein particles, and other impurities that affect oil clarity, shelf life, and cooking performance. Traditional methods can be complex and energy-intensive.
The Solution: Multi-Stage Bag Filtration
Filter bags provide an economical approach to oil clarification, removing particles while maintaining oil quality. The process typically uses progressively finer filtration stages.
Recommended Filter Selection:
- Primary Filtration: Polyester felt (50-100 micron) for large particles
- Polish Filtration: Extended life polyester felt (10-25 micron)
- High-Temperature Processing: PTFE felt for extreme conditions
Key Benefits
- Food-safe materials with full compliance documentation
- High dirt-holding capacity reduces change frequency
- Maintains oil quality and extends shelf life
- Cost-effective compared to alternative methods
Processing Notes
Heated oils require temperature-resistant materials. Consider extended life media for longer service intervals and reduced operating costs.
