This presentation gives an overview of the different types of processes in dewaxing vegetable oils. As there is always the need for having the right process according to the available feedstocks there will be a comparison of the different available processes regarding yield and utility consumption related to the process performance – mainly cold stability. It will be shown that there are different possibilities to combine the dewaxing process either with a degumming or a neutralization process.
