  • What is the refining method for tea seed oil?
  • Currently, the traditional refining method for common vegetable oils is widely used for tea seed oil refining. This method comprises several steps: degumming, neutralization, bleaching, deodorization and dewaxing.
  • Can tea seed oil be refined?
  • Crude tea seed oil is unpalatable owing to its bitter taste and the presence of phospholipids, so it must be refined to produce oil for human consumption. Currently, the traditional refining method for common vegetable oils is widely used for tea seed oil refining.
  • When did Nigeria start refining oil?
  • Refining in Nigeria began a decade after oil was discovered in the oil-rich Niger Delta region in the 1950s. Initially starting out in 1965 with a refining capacity of 38,000 barrels per day (bpd), Nigeria's refining capacity has grown over the years and is considered the 4th largest in Africa.
  • Does refining temperature affect fatty acids in tea seed oil?
  • The traditional refining process for tea seed oil (Camellia oleifera oil) results in a severe loss of natural bioactive compounds and unsaturated fatty acids owing to the high operating temperatures. This study investigated the relationship between refining temperatures and the loss of various fatty acids and bioactive compounds in tea seed oil.
  • How to remove bioactive compounds from tea seed oil?
  • The losses of bioactive compounds in refined oil significantly reduced. The undesirable materials could be removed effectively by new refinery method. The traditional refining process for tea seed oil (Camellia oleifera oil) results in a severe loss of natural bioactive compounds and unsaturated fatty acids owing to the high operating temperatures.
  • Does Nigeria have a potential for domestic refining of petroleum products?
  • It draws attention to the existing gaps in the supply of refined petroleum products in Nigeria and the West African region and it highlights the sizeable potential for domestic refining of petroleum products. Importantly, it identifies key drivers that will spur the growth of the refining sector in Nigeria.
