Organic chlorine removal is one of the most challenging step of waste oil Pre-treatment. TECHNOILOGY has developed a unique process to deeply remove the organic chlorine contained in organic substrates. DOWNLOAD PRESENTATION
Mitigating 3-MCPD and GE, our new technology to drastically reduce contaminants
Since 2006, European Union enforced more and more stringent parameters for 3-MCPD and GE levels accepted in food to be traded in Europe, especially when it’s about infant food. New amendments are now underway and should come into force from January 2021. This will be an important challenge for food corporations and oil processing companies […]
Cereal Treatment with CO2: an innovative technology for a safe product
Cereal grains have been a major source of staple food all over the world because of its easiness of being stored, handled, and transported. But before being processed and destined to human consumption, all cereals must be treated properly to remove possible insects and larvae. Traditional techniques for pest control involve the use of chemical […]
The new frontier of Hydrogen
Hydrogen is light, storable, energy-dense, and produces no direct emissions of pollutants or greenhouse gases. But for hydrogen to make a significant contribution to clean energy transitions, it needs to be adopted in sectors where it is almost absent, such as transports and power generation. Today, supplying hydrogen to industrial users is a major business […]
Pre-treatment of Animal Fat for Biodiesel and HVO Production
In 2015-2016 the world produced about 258 million mt of meat, equivalent to 100 million tons of by-products used in different industries. Animal fat is much used in the food industry but also in Oleochemistry and Biofuel Production. Tallow in particular, is among the feedstocks used by Biodiesel and HVO Producers. Like it’s been said […]
POME Treatment for Biodiesel and HVO Production
Every Ton of Fresh Fruit Bunches processed generates between 0.6% and 1.5% of POME oil. In the past POME Oil – also called Palm Sludge Oil or Palm Acid Oil – has rarely been used as a feedstock due to the high cost of extraction. But in recent years oil corporations have started to look […]
The importance of UCO Pre-treatment for Biodiesel and HVO Production
The initiatives taken by different countries for converting used cooking oil (UCO) to biodiesel and more recently HVO, is expected to offer immense opportunity for used cooking oil market growth. Especially in the light of environmental issues concerning the usage of vegetable oil as a feedstock for biofuel production. In Europe, between 2011 and 2016, […]
3-MCPD AND GE: THE NEW CHALLENGE
The new challenge of reducing 3-MCPD and GE levels in vegetable oils is an important global debate that is affecting food industry and oil refiners worldwide. In Europe, EFSA’s expert panel on contaminants first assessed the potential risks of 3-MCPD together with another food processing contaminant called glycidyl fatty acid esters (GE) in 2016. The […]
Oil Pre-treatment: last innovations for HVO Production
Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil or HVO, is commonly referred to as renewable fuel and is rapidly becoming one of the latest trends of the industry. HVO is produced via hydroprocessing of oils and fats, an alternative process to esterification to produce fuel from biomass. HVO can be produced from a wide variety of materials containing triglycerides […]
Oil Pre-treatment: last innovations for HVO Production
Hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) production is set to more than double from around 5.5 billion L in 2018 to 13 billion L in 2024. HVO accounts for one-fifth of forecast biofuel output growth, although today only a few companies have developed stand alone HVO Production processes. Also, HVO producers often need to rely to oils […]
