Fish oil, extracted from fatty fish, is rich in various vitamins and polyunsaturated fatty acids. It can supplement the human body with vitamins A and D. Some people feed small amounts of fish oil to infants to prevent vitamin A and D deficiencies and achieve nutritional balance. Today, the fish oil technologist from Henan Huatai Cereals and Oils Machinery will provide a detailed analysis of the fish oil refining process.

I. Usage of Fish Oil Refining Equipment

1. Preparation:

Before using the fish oil refining equipment, it is necessary to clean and disinfect the equipment to ensure hygiene and safety during the operation. Also, prepare the raw fish oil and corresponding auxiliary materials.

2. Adding Raw Materials:

Add the raw fish oil into the container of the fish oil refining equipment, ensuring not to exceed the maximum capacity limit of the equipment. If needed, the raw materials can be cut or ground to facilitate better extraction and refining of the fish oil.

3. Starting Operation:

Connect the power supply and turn on the equipment. Select the appropriate working mode and parameters according to the equipment's instructions. Typically, the fish oil refining equipment will automatically perform heating, stirring, and separation operations, but manual monitoring and adjustments are still required.

4. Separation and Filtration:

During the fish oil refining process, the internal separation and filtration devices of the equipment separate the fish oil from impurities. This step is crucial to ensure the purity and quality of the fish oil.

5. Collection and Storage:

After the fish oil refining is completed, collect the extracted fish oil and store it. It is recommended to use clean, sealed containers to avoid exposure to sunlight and oxygen, thereby extending the shelf life of the fish oil

II. Glyceride Fish Oil Refining Equipment

Glyceride fish oil is a product obtained by esterifying fish oil with glycerol, offering better stability and absorption. Suitable equipment plays a crucial role in the refining process of glyceride fish oil. This article introduces the manufacturing methods of glyceride fish oil refining equipment and discusses how to improve production efficiency and product quality.

1. Fish Oil Esterification Reaction Equipment:

This is one of the core pieces of equipment in the glyceride fish oil refining process. It usually consists of a reaction kettle, heating system, and stirring device. First, add fish oil and glycerol into the reaction kettle in a certain proportion, then heat to the appropriate temperature using the heating system to initiate the esterification reaction. The stirring device promotes the reaction, ensuring thorough mixing of fish oil and glycerol. Through reasonable design and control, efficient esterification reactions can be achieved, resulting in high-quality glyceride fish oil products.

2. Fish Oil Deodorization Equipment:

This equipment removes odors and impurities from glyceride fish oil, improving the product's taste and quality. It uses steam heating and vacuum deodorization processes to effectively remove impurities and odors from glyceride fish oil. Precise temperature control and deodorization time ensure that the glyceride fish oil is purer, enhancing its market competitiveness.

3. Glyceride Fish Oil Refining Tank:

This equipment is used for refining and storing glyceride fish oil. It employs heating and cooling processes to remove impurities and unwanted substances from glyceride fish oil by controlling temperature and time. The refining tank has stable working performance and a reliable operation control system, ensuring product quality and safety.

4. Glyceride Fish Oil Filtration Equipment:

This equipment removes suspended particles and impurities from fish oil. It typically uses stainless steel filters or other filtration media to physically separate impurities from glyceride fish oil. This equipment can improve the transparency and purity of the product, making glyceride fish oil clearer and more reliable.

In summary, glyceride fish oil refining equipment plays an important role in the production process of glyceride fish oil. Using a complete set of glyceride fish oil refining equipment can improve production efficiency, enhance product quality, and meet market demands. With continuous technological advancements, glyceride fish oil refining equipment will continue to innovate and develop, bringing more opportunities and challenges to the health food industry.
