How Smart Manufacturing Is Transforming Soybean Oil Processing？

Industry Challenges

As demand grows for healthier edible oils and more sustainable manufacturing, soybean oil producers face increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and maintain consistent product quality. To address these challenges, Myande has developed an integrated soybean oil processing solution covering the entire production chain—from pretreatment and extraction to refining and automation.

Recently, Myande was selected for China's 2025 National 5G Factory List by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). The recognition highlights Myande's commitment to smart manufacturing and digital transformation while reinforcing its position as a global provider of advanced oils and fats processing solutions.

Pretreatment and Extraction

Myande's soybean oil production line combines modular engineering with intelligent process control to maximize operational performance.

In the preparation/pretreatment section, high-efficiency cleaning, conditioning, cracking, and flaking equipment prepare raw materials for optimal extraction performance. This integrated approach helps ensure stable operation and consistent processing results throughout the production line.

At the core of the extraction process is Myande's proprietary E-Type Extractor. Featuring a shallow-bed design, the extractor significantly reduces solvent consumption and residual oil content while improving extraction efficiency. Steam consumption in soybean processing can be reduced to levels approximately 30% below the global industry average. Its flexible design also enables reliable operation across different plant capacities and raw material conditions, helping customers achieve lower operating costs and higher productivity.

Advanced Refining Technologies

Myande continues to advance refining technology through innovations that improve both process efficiency and final product quality.

Its self-developed Nano Cavitation Reaction System enhances mass transfer efficiency through controlled physical cavitation. During degumming and neutralization, the system reduces acid consumption by more than 60% and alkali consumption by over 20%, lowering both chemical usage and wastewater treatment requirements.

Another breakthrough is Myande's Variable-Temperature Deodorization Technology. By precisely controlling the deodorization temperature profile, the system effectively removes undesirable odor compounds while minimizing the formation of trans-fatty acids. At the same time, it preserves more than 90% of naturally occurring nutrients such as vitamin E and sterols, resulting in higher-quality refined oil with improved nutritional value.

Both technologies have been independently evaluated by experts from the Chinese Grains and Oils Association and recognized as achieving an internationally leading level of performance.
