Fat Splitting Plant

Spling is the process through which the triglyceride hydrolysis is carried out, breaking up the molecules to obtain fatty acid.

The mechanism of this reaction goes through three steps – the triglyceride is successively transformed into diglyceride, monoglyceride and glycerine, liberating fay acid in each step. Mectech has built several plants for thermal pressure spling of spitting with water into fatty acid. It is a simple economical process and does not pollute the environment. Mectech provides Fat Spling Plant ranging in capacity from 30 – 1000 TPD.

Process Description

• The continuous, counter-current, high pressure fat- spling process is the most efficient of the current methods of fat hydrolysis. The high temperature and pressure used permit short reaction me. Full counter-current flow of water and oil produces a high degree of spling without the need of a catalyst. The spling tower is at the heart of the process.
• The Process water is introduced from the top and flows down through the continuous up-flowing oil phase. This is then dispersed with efficient distributors at the top and aer regular intervals to ensure a MINIMUM SPLITTING DEGREE OF 99%.
