  • What is a soybean processing facility?
  • A soybean processing facility, in which refined oil, soy protein concentrate and soy protein isolate are produced, generates residues that if undergo additional industrial operations may result in new products with commercial value.
  • How is soybean oil made?
  • Crude soybean oil is extracted from the beans, and then further refined into food-grade soybean oil, or Savorysoy ®. It can then be further refined into an epoxidized soybean oil, or PlastiSoy ®. The meal created from the crushing process goes on to be used by local livestock farmers. Soybean hulls that are also used as animal feed.
  • What are the by-products of refining soybean oil?
  • Refining of soybean oil, to make a neutral, bland-flavored, and light-colored oil, results in several by-products. The by-products consist of various mixtures of phosphatides, unsaponifiables, glycerides, free fatty acids, and soap. Lecithin contains mostly hydratable phosphatides, together with some free fatty acids and neutral oil (glycerides).
  • Which step in soybean oil processing improves its flavor?
  • Though, in soybean oil processing, color reduction occurs at each step: degumming, caustic refining, bleaching, hydrogenation, and deodorization, but bleaching improves the flavor of refined soybean oil.
  • How are soybeans processed?
  • All year soybeans are delivered to the facilities and then processed into oil, fuel, meal and flour. These value-added soybean products are sold around the world to make food and ingredients for livestock feed, pet food and fuel. The Mankato and Fairmont processing facilities receive soybeans, remove the hulls and prepare the beans for crushing.
  • Why is soybean oil a commercial product?
  • The processes of soybean oil extraction and the concentration of its proteins generate large quantities of residues with components that have commercial value. These residues can be sold with almost no further processing, at a low price (as feed, for instance), or they can be transformed and/or purified in order to increase their value.
