The final and most important step in process of refining is the physical distillation/ deodorisation to produce an odorless and tasteless product with negligible free fatty acid content, light color and higher stability against oxidation.
The most economical method of removal of the undesirable components such as free fatty acids,aldehydes and ketones,fatty alcohols,colouring compounds etc which are naturally present or develop during prior processes is by passing the oil through a series of independent stainless steel compartments positioned vertically/horizontally within a shell and subjected to intensive live steam stripping under high vacuum at high temperatures to remove all the volatiles.
