The animal fat refining is an essential processing system designed to remove impurities, improve oil quality, and ensure safe storage of the final product. Through advanced refining stages such as degumming, neutralization, bleaching, deodorization, and fractionation, the plant effectively purifies crude animal oils and enhances their stability, color, and flavor.
As one of the leading animal oil refinery machinery manufacturers, Ocean provides complete refining solutions tailored for animal fats including lard, beef tallow, poultry oil, and fish oil. Our refining technology combines chemical and physical refining processes to meet diverse production requirements while maintaining high efficiency and energy savings
1.Degumming
In this stage, phospholipids and other gum-like impurities are removed from crude oil using water or acid treatment. Ocean’s animal fat refining equipment ensures efficient separation and improved oil clarity, forming a clean base for further refining.
2.Neutralization
Free fatty acids are neutralized by using caustic soda. This step enhances the oil’s stability and shelf life. Ocean’s animal oil refinery machinery minimizes oil loss and maintains purity during this critical refining phase.
3.Bleaching
Using activated bleaching earth, unwanted pigments, oxidation products, and trace metals are adsorbed from the oil. Ocean’s animal oil refinery plant achieves excellent color reduction and improved oxidative stability through optimized temperature and vacuum control.
4.Deodorization
In our animal oil refining production line, deodorization is the most critical stage. During this step, the oil is subjected to high-temperature steam stripping under deep vacuum to remove volatile compounds such as free fatty acids, peroxides, and residual pesticides etc.
5.Fractionation
The refined oil is cooled and separated into solid and liquid fractions according to melting points. The animal oil refining production line delivers precise fractionation control, allowing manufacturers to obtain products with tailored melting characteristics and higher economic value.

Ocean specializes in refining various animal oils such as lard, tallow, chicken oil, duck oil, and fish oil into high-quality refined products. Our animal oil refining plant is designed to ensure maximum purity, stability, and nutritional value while maintaining high production efficiency. Ocean also undertakes special oil refining projects through dedicated pilot units and in-house R&D facilities. We collaborate with Henan University of Technology to jointly research the development of specialty oils and the extraction and purification of active components from processing by-products.
The reliable and efficient continuous alkali refining equipment ensures complete neutralization and superior refining performance for animal oils. Featuring long and short-mix reaction sections, the system combines thorough deacidification with precise process control and oil quality protection.
Efficient and reliable continuous vacuum bleaching systems from Ocean are designed to remove pigments, oxidation products, and trace impurities from oils and fats, ensuring bright color and superior product quality. Operating under negative pressure and controlled temperature, the system minimizes oxidation and reduces bleaching earth consumption for cleaner, more stable refined oil.
Reliable and energy-efficient deodorization systems designed by Ocean ensure optimal removal of free fatty acids and odor compounds in animal oil refining. With vast experience in animal oil refinery plant engineering, we provide versatile, easy-to-operate solutions that can be customized to meet specific process requirements.
Ocean’s energy-saving vacuum system ensures stable, efficient, and environmentally friendly operation across all refining stages. This vacuum subsystem supports low steam consumption, minimal exhaust emissions, and reduced operational costs for the animal oil refining plant.
