step1:
Gum conditioning and Neutralization: Gums and unwanted fatty acids present in the crude sunflower oil are removed
step2:
Bleaching: The colour of the neutralized sunflower oil is reduced in this step
step3:
De-Waxing: The wax content present in the bleached oil is filtered out in this step.
step4:
Deodorization: Unwanted odour and colouring pigments present in the de-waxed oil are removed in this step.
The final deodorized oil is filtered; antioxidants and vitamins are added. The refined sunflower oil is then sent for packing.
It is to be noted that the entire process is automated without any manual intervention.
