Call | Convert plant oils
and fats into safe high-added-value products for various applications including food and personal care |
Description of call "Convert plant oils and fats into safe high-added-value products for various applications including food and personal care" | Plant oils and fats are a promising feedstock for high-value products with
new functionalities and properties for applications in food, personal care, cosmetics and in the chemical industry, among
others. However, current processing conditions for refining the feedstock can cause undesired or toxic impurities and possibly
also potentially carcinogenic compounds. Also, current refining processes have either a high energy demand or result in high
oil losses, while the side streams bring in low value. The specific challenge is to refine plant oils and fats at milder conditions,
with high yields and delivering safe, high quality products. |
