Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of olive oil technology, specifically to a multi-stage physical filtration device for olive oil. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-stage physical filtration equipment is a crucial step in the production of high-quality extra virgin olive oil or refined olive oil (especially through physical refining). Its core objective is to gradually and efficiently remove suspended solids, colloids, water, and extremely small particles from the oil through multiple physical barriers without using chemical solvents, thereby obtaining clear, stable, flavorful olive oil that meets food safety standards.

[0003] A search revealed an olive oil filtration device with publication number CN213885300U, comprising an outer cylinder, an inner filter cylinder installed inside the outer cylinder, and a drive device for rotating the inner filter cylinder. The bottom of the inner filter cylinder is a tapered settling section that tapers downwards. A filter window is provided on the wall of the inner filter cylinder, located above the settling section, and a filter screen I is installed on the filter window. In this invention, the inner filter cylinder is driven to rotate, causing the olive oil to flow outwards centrifugally and pass through the filter screen I at the filter window into the outer cylinder. Solid impurities settle at the center of the inner filter cylinder. This structure facilitates solid-liquid separation, and the settling section facilitates the settling and aggregation of solid impurities. The settling section also facilitates the separation of solid impurities from the filter window, improving the filtration effect.

[0004] In the aforementioned technical solution, an olive oil filtration device is driven to rotate through an inner filter cylinder, causing the olive oil to flow outwards centrifugally and pass through the filter screen I at the filter window into the outer cylinder. Solid impurities settle at the center of the inner filter cylinder. This structure facilitates solid-liquid separation, and the settling section facilitates the settling and aggregation of solid impurities. The settling section also facilitates the separation of solid impurities from the filter window, improving the filtration effect. However, the temperature of the olive oil during the filtration process is not addressed. High temperatures accelerate oxidation, damaging volatile aroma components and heat-sensitive phenols, vitamin E, and other nutrients. Utility Model Content
