Optimization and innovation of the clarification process of vegetable oils: a review
The clarification is a process of adsorption of pigments and impurities present in vegetable oils. This process occurs in a conventional way using a high-cost mineral adsorbent. Because of this adversity, opted to carry out a bibliographical review to gather information regarding the optimization of the clarification process. Sixteen studies were selected that deal with the optimization of the clarification of vegetable oils and the use of new technologies to improve process performance.
