There are three types of degumming processes: water, acid, and enzymatic. For acid degumming, oil is heated and then acid is added to the mixture in hopes of reducing gums to the value required in the oil prior to the combined deodorization and distillation process. Flow instrumentation is useful during this process to monitor the system pressure during evaporation, condensing, and steam stripping for acid degumming.
