(VFT) has developed a propriety Distillers Corn Oil (DCO) purification process, utilizing its Fiber Reactor (FR) technology. The output DCO (clean DCO) is a new-to-market purity, absent of contaminants that cause catalyst fouling. Technical performance of the technology is guaranteed. There are…
read moreHistorically, purification processes used in the degumming and pretreatment of food oils and fuel production feedstocks required substantial factory footprint and a high degree of complexity. These antiquated processes suffer yield losses that accumulate with each consecutive unit operation with oil lost to neutralization soap stock, clays, activated silica, and DE. Furthermore, the cost of…
