  3. Definition Definition of micronutrients: in biology, any chemical element required by living organisms in minute amounts. Here: valuableminorcomponents in deodorizerdestillatesthat find use as ingredients in the food, cosmeticsorpharmaindustries.

  12. Needs for enrichment 1) Chemical refiningwithoilsrich in volatilemicronutrientsmaydirectly give destillatesuseful for furtherprocessing (e.g. soybeanoil), althoughadditionalenrichment still willbeadvantageous in some cases. 2) Physicalrefiningrequiresenrichmenttechnology to withdrawsufficientlyenrichedmicronutrients.

  13. Design and OperationalAspects

  14. Objectives 1) Deodorizeoil to meetrequirements for micronutrientcontent in the deodorizedoil (typicallytocopherol) – oftensecondary to FFA removalrequirement. 2) To extract and concentratemicronutrients (typically to > 10% concentration) from the deodorizerdestillates to facilitate transport to and furthertreatment in dedicatedprocessingfacilities.

  15. VolatilityBasics

  16. Separation Basics Enrichmentdependson ratio of liquidactivitycoefficients, liquidmolarfractions and pure componentvaporpressures

  17. Adding a condensation zone Enricheddestillate Hightemperature Condensation

  18. TocoBoost®process concept TocoBoost® configuration gives virtually no loss of tocopherols or other micronutrients to the FFA product stream PATENT APLICATION- EP 2 597 142 A1

  19. Implementation OptionHot Oil Scrubbing

  20. Example Oil Soybeanoil Column: Packed (structuredpacking) Operating conditions 260 ºC, 0.75% spargesteam, 2.5 mbar vacuum Oil composition Simulation model PRO/II within-houselipidproperty data base

  22. Toco’s in hot destillateFinal heatertemperature +5 ºC

  23. Toco’s in hot destillateDecreasevacuum to 1.5 mbar

  24. Toco’s in hot destillateIncreasespargesteam to 1.25%

  25. Conclusions Deodorizer destillates contain valuable micronutrients such as tocopherols, sterols and squalene, that can be withdrawn in enriched product streams. Process simulation toolsareuseful in both design and retrofit studies to identify optimum conditions for the enrichment.
