Crude oil, freshly extracted from seed contains undesirable impurities, which must be removed. These include free fatty acids, phosphatides, colour pigments and fine particles.
The filter used for this is a pressure leaf type, which is commonly used in the edible oil industry for the removal of adsorbent.
