ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a novel method and device for removing oxygen from oils. The oils may be in liquid form, such as vegetables oils, etc., in solid form, such as fats, etc. or in some type of intermediate semi-solid form. By removing oxygen from various products containing oils and fats, the present invention is an effective antioxidant for food products, as well as for various industrial and commercial products, such as paints, varnishes, etc. The method comprises the steps of providing an oil containing oxygen and adding to the oil a sufficient amount of an aqueous solution containing oxygen scavenging membrane fragments and a hydrogen donor substance to reduce the oxygen present in the oil to water.
