Canola oil means the oil obtained from clean and sound, low erucic acid bearing seeds of rapeseed belonging to compestris, juncea or napus varieties of Brassica by the method of expression or solvent extraction and it shall be clear, free from rancidity, suspended or other foreign matter, separated water, added coloring or flavoring substances or mineral oil and shall contain not more than 2 % erucic acid (as % of total fatty acids). Refined imported rapeseed oil is the oil obtained from the above crude oil by the process of refining as per the definition given under FSSAI 2.2.1 (16) & 2.2.1 (7). It shall be clear, free from rancidity, suspended or other foreign matter, separated water, added colouring or flavoring substances or mineral oil and shall not contain not more than 2 % erucic acid. It shall conform to the following standards
Corn oil is made from organic corn germ through pressing and refining techniques, the fatty acid in corn oil is characterized by the content of unsaturated fatty acids as high as 80%-85%. Corn oil itself does not contain cholesterol. It has a dissolving effect on the accumulation of cholesterol in the blood and can reduce the hardening of blood vessels. It has a positive preventive effect on senile diseases such as arteriosclerosis and diabetes. Due to the function of natural vitamin E, it has obvious curative effect and preventive effect on heart disease, thrombophlebitis, reproductive dysfunction, muscular dystrophy and nutritional encephalomalacia.
The oil produced from the seeds of the Jatropha plant that grows in all the common and marginal lands is called Jatropha oil. The species of the plant that is used for oil extraction is known as Jatropha Curcas. Since Jatropha Curcas is very toxic, they are not consumed by humans and other living things. The main goal of cultivating Jatropha is to extract oil from the seeds, which is used as an alternative energy source. Jatropha oil extraction methods have also gained the same importance as Jatropha cultivation. Since the oil extracted from Jatropha seeds is the primary source for bio-fuel, the process of extraction methods has also become significant. The oil extracted from the seeds is processed to prepare high-quality biofuel, an alternative source that can be used in a diesel car. While the residue that remains after extraction is processed and is used as a biomass feedstock to produce electricity and fertilizer. Jatropha oil is non-edible and is also poisonous.
Palm oil is obtained from the soft pulp of the fruit of the palm (Elaeis guineensis) tree that grows primarily in Malaysia. The oil content is 40-65%. The crude oil has a reddish color and the refined oil is light colored and transparent (both in its liquid form). It is one of the oils with the largest production in the world and is a reference for all lauric oils such as coconut and palm kernel. It is an oil of the lauric group, those having a balanced composition of short chain fatty acids (less than or equal to 16 carbons) and upper channels (equal to or greater than 18). This composition means the melting point of this oil is about 36-38 �° C and means that depending on the geographical area, the oil is liquid or solid. The application of palm oil is mainly for human and animal nutrition and production of personal care products. It is also one of the main raw materials for the manufacturer of biodiesel. The palm oil derivatives are widely used in technical fields.
Refined Peanut Oil, also known as groundnut oil, is a vegetable oil derived from peanuts. The oil usually has a mild or neutral flavor but, if made with roasted peanuts, has a stronger peanut flavor and aroma. It is often used both for general cooking, and in the case of roasted oil, for added flavor.
Despite its limited name recognition in Malaysia, rapeseed oil is one of the oldest known vegetable oils. Its extracted from the seeds of a plant called rape, which is botanically related to cruciferous veggies like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage. The plant grows primarily around the world and is identifiable by its bright yellow flowers. Rapeseed oil comes in two distinct forms. Industrial rapeseed oil, which isnt edible, is used for purposes like lubricating engines and making lipstick. It contains high amounts of erucic acid1, a substance known to be toxic to humans. Culinary rapeseed oil, on the other hand, is edible, used in home cooking, and included in many processed food formulations. Unlike industrial rapeseed oil, the culinary version is low in erucic acid, with an upper limit of 2% by weight. culinary rapeseed oil goes by the name canola oilso called for its largest producer here in Malaysia, however, its retained its original moniker.
Soybean (also known as soyabean), the legume or bean with the botanical name Glycine max, has attained global importance as a rich source of proteins and polyunsaturated oil after the World War II. It is also an important vegetarian source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Direct food uses of soybeans include soya milk and tofu (made from soya milk). Fermented foods like soy sauce are also made from soybeans.bean products over the past few years. Today, soybeans are cultivated across the globe in large quantities and are processed to obtain vegetable oil as well as the oil meal for a wide range of end-uses. Malaysia. Therefore, the soybean processing industry, i.e., solvent extraction plants to extract the triglyceride oil from soybeans and feed making plants to produce various animal feeds from the extracted soybean oil meal (and other oil meals), have flourished in these countries in the past several decades. Standards have been specified for various grades of soybeans which are traded across the globe. Soybeans generally contain about 18 to 20% triglyceride oil and 35 to 40% proteins on dry basis. Traditionally, soybeans are first processed in solvent extraction plants to obtain the vegetable oil and then the oil meal is either used as a component of different animal feeds. Soybean flour is also used to make traditional breads after mixing with other flours like wheat flour. Other products like textured vegetable proteins (TVP) are also made from soybeans. Baby food formulations, meat and dairy alternatives, soy nut butter are some of the advanced food products made from soybeans.
Sunflower oil is obtained from the seed of the sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) a plant grown mainly in Malaysia. The average content of oil in the seed is 45%. The high oleic sunflower oil is derived from sunflower seed varieties grown in Malaysia. The refined oil is pale yellow, clear, bright and almost odourless. In the refined variety, oleic / linoleic acid is 1 to 2 (30% vs. 65% approximately). In the high oleic variety, oleic content is above 75% at the expense of linoleic acid (about 10%).
Used cooking oil are oils and fats that have been used for cooking or frying in the food processing industry, restaurants, fast foods and at consumer level, in households. The Universe classifies them as Municipal Wastes (household waste and similar commercial, industrial and institutional wastes) including separately collected fractions, under the code 20 01 25 (edible oils and fats). UCO obtained from waste water treatment plants is also considered nonhazardous materials with a different code: 19 08 09 (grease and oil mixture from oil/water separation containing edible oil and fats). It is estimated that currently around 90% of cooking oils and fat used in the Universe are produced from vegetable oils, According to the Universe estimations, the potential UCO to be collected is around 8L UCO/capita/year. Extrapolated to the total Universe population of around 500 million, this means that 4 Mton of UCO is the annually capacity seven times more than the current collected amount. This potential increases around 2% per year, following the annual increase of cooking oil usage in the EU15. In order to achieve this level of collection, the collection infrastructure should be improved.
