On-line Monitoring of Free Fatty Acid (FFA) in Edible Oil

On-line monitoring of FFA content in sunflower oil at the end of oil extraction/refinery process prior to packaging/storage.
Adaptable to measure both high (5-10%) as well as low values (< 1%) of FFA

The system is useful for on-line monitoring of FFA, which is an important quality parameter, in edible oils like sun-flower oil. The monitoring will be helpful in optimizing the process and improve the quality of the product.

• The system provides a non-destructive, instantaneous, cost effective and accurate estimation of FFA content in sunflower oil.
• Measurements avoid the wastage of samples and chemicals.
• System is easy to operate and does not require trained personnel.
• Economically priced with good return value.
• Adds negligible incremental cost on the production
• Reduces human induced errors and results in energy reduction
