Process Technology
SPECIALTY CHEMICALS & PHYTONUTRIENTS PROCESS
 

Specialty Esters

Lipochem also supply short chain fatty acid esterification process. The product which is short chain fatty acid esters often have strong characteristics aromas for flavors and fragrances.

 

Palm Phytonutrients Process

Lipochem phytonutrient process consists of FFA Esterification using solid catalyst, followed by transesterification and distillation including Short Path Distillation.

We have optimised technologies in solvent fractionation for the production of high value products such as tocotrienols, carotenes and other antioxidants by collaborating extensively with international companies supplying membrane filters and solvent recovery system.

 

Premium Oil Process

An example of a fruitful partnership between Lipochem and MPOB is the scale up for the production of a Novel Palm Olein (NoveLin) with cold stability.

The manufacturing process uses specially selected refined palm oil with other seed oils in complementary blends to provide for a selective group of triacylglycerols for fractionation. Fractionations of oils and fats is well-accepted process that is simple, non-chemical and makes use of the natural phenomenon of the oil components crystallizing out when subjected to cooling conditions.

The crystals are separated for use in different applications, while the liquid oil remains stable and clear at 0 ºC. The design of the crystallizers and filter press are crucial to the success in maintaining product quality.

NoveLin, Premium Health Balance Cooking Oil is special because:

  • It is formulated in accordance to World Health Organization (WHO) and American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines and is expected to show reduction in heart-related diseases
  • It is a balanced oil that remains liquid at supermarket conditions in temperate countries
  • It is low in saturation, but high in monounsaturation, and a source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and is free from cholesterol and trans fatty acids
  • It has good oxidative stability compared to common unsaturated oils

It can be used in:

  • General household cooking, frying and as salad dressing
  • Industrial food processing
  • Blended with other native vegetable oils
