  • What are the by-products of refining soybean oil?
  • Refining of soybean oil, to make a neutral, bland-flavored, and light-colored oil, results in several by-products. The by-products consist of various mixtures of phosphatides, unsaponifiables, glycerides, free fatty acids, and soap. Lecithin contains mostly hydratable phosphatides, together with some free fatty acids and neutral oil (glycerides).
  • How is soybean processed?
  • Modern soybean processing starts with solvent extraction to obtain crude oil and defatted meal. Most defatted meal is used for animal feed and only a small portion is further processed into different types of soy protein products for human consumption (see Chapter 8). Crude oil contains variable amounts of nontriglyceride materials.
  • What are the current practices in soybean processing and utilization?
  • This chapter describes current practices in soybean processing and utilization. More significant changes have occurred in soybean processing and utilization in the last 20 yr than during the crop's prior history in the USA. Considerable variation can occur in quality levels of soybean, meal, and oil.
  • What is modern soybean oil?
  • Modern soy oil is a stable high quality triglyceride ingredient used widely in commercial processed foods. It is without other lipid contaminants and available at a reasonable cost. Modern soybean processing starts with solvent extraction to obtain crude oil and defatted meal.
  • How is soybean oil transported?
  • Storage tanks of soybean oil at extraction plants, or terminals, are cylindrical and of mild steel construction. This chapter further discusses the overland transport and water transportation of soybean oil. A major concern in handling and transporting vegetable oils is to avoid contamination.
  • What is the soybean processing industry?
  • The soybean processing industry has developed manufacturing systems and procedures, trading rules, comprehensive product quality specifications, and quality control procedures to ensure finished products that consistently meet customer and consumer needs.
