Enzymatic degumming whitepaper

Producer cuts rapeseed oil losses by half

Novonesis, along with GEA and brprocess, have commissioned our first enzymatic deep degumming line for rapeseed oil in Europe. The degumming line is part of a new biodiesel plant built for a well-known manufacturer of rapeseed oil and biodiesel, based in Northern Europe.

The new degumming line has delivered impressive results:

  • 1.4% yield increase
  • 75% lower acid usage and 100% reduction in caustic
  • Significantly easier gum handling thanks to improved viscosity
  • More stable process control
  • Faster, smoother commissioning

Since implementing enzymatic TOP degumming with Novonesis’ Quara® LowP, we have observed higher oil yield, improved phosphorus reduction, lower chemical consumption, which lowers overall OPEX, more efficient gum separation and finally better process control.
