Glyceride oil treatment with oxide and bleaching earth
Abstract
The storage properties of edible oils are improved by first contacting the oil, in solution in a non-polar solvent, with a metal or metalloid oxide adsorbent in a column, and subsequently treating the oil with a bleaching earth after the solvent has been removed.

The present invention contemplates a method for treating oils having undesirable color impurities and an oil bleaching composition suitable for use in this method. The method comprises contacting the oil with the oil bleaching composition for a time period sufficient to reduce the amount of color impurities of the oil. The oil bleaching composition includes a neutral bleaching clay and a chelating polycarboxylic acid. The spent bleaching composition resists spontaneous combustion.
