The purpose of this review has as objective
to present the applications and the recent development of membrane technology in the vegetable oil
processing. It approaches fundamentals aspects in the processes of separation by
membranes as well as present the related works in the degumming, dewaxing, deacidification,
solvent recovery, pigment removal, concentration of minor components and
separation of emulsions. Its shows that oils processing with membranes, done
under low temperatures, with substantial exclusion of stages, presents a
promising alternative to conventional method towards the achievement of
cost-effective processes that are technically advanced and less noxious to
environment. more download here
