What is Sunflower Oil?

Sunflower oil is extracted from the seeds of the sunflower plant (Helianthus annuus), which is native to North America. Sunflower oil is a versatile cooking oil with a range of health benefits, particularly when used in moderation and as part of a balanced diet.

 

Sunflower oil is predominantly composed of monounsaturated fatty acids, primarily oleic acid, which makes up about 20-30% of its content, depending on the variety. It also contains a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which constitutes approximately 60-70% of the oil. Sunflower oil has a lower amount of saturated fatty acids, around 10-12%, including palmitic and stearic acids, which contribute to its stability. Additionally, it is a good source of vitamin E, including tocopherols and tocotrienols, which provide antioxidant properties, and it contains phytosterols that can help reduce cholesterol absorption.

Steps of Sunflower Oil Refinery

  • Step 1

    Degumming

    Water or acid is added to crude sunflower oil to hydrate the phospholipids, which are then separated using centrifugation. This step prepares the oil for further refining by removing gums and other impurities.

  • Step 2

    Acid Gum Conditioning

    Acidic solutions (such as phosphoric acid) are used to condition the oil, breaking down non-hydratable gums and improving the efficiency of their removal during subsequent processes.

  • Step 3

    Alkali Neutralization

    An alkali solution, typically caustic soda, is added to the oil to neutralize free fatty acids, forming soap stock that is then separated. This process improves the oil’s stability and quality.

  • Step 4

    Bleaching

    The oil is treated with bleaching earth or activated carbon to remove unwanted pigments, trace metals, and oxidation products. The oil is then filtered to produce clear, high-quality oil.

  • Step 5

    Dewaxing

    The oil is cooled to crystallize the waxes and other high-melting point impurities. These are then removed through filtration, resulting in clear oil that remains stable in low temperatures.

  • Step 6

    Deodorization

    The oil is subjected to high-temperature steam distillation under vacuum conditions to remove any odorous substances and volatile compounds, resulting in neutral-smelling, refined oil.

  • Step 7

    Winterization

    For oils intended for cooler climates, the oil undergoes winterization, where it is chilled to remove crystallized waxes and solids. This process ensures the oil remains clear and stable even at low temperatures.
