Snack Food Processing
Hot Oil Filtration for Clean Oil & Dry Filtered Solids
Eliminate oil waste in your snack frying process by removing Free Fatty Acids & Crumbs/Fines/Flour
Benefits of Hot Oil Snack Filtration with the Oberlin Filter
Increase Oil Life with High Efficiency Filtration Down to 1 Micron
The Oberlin Filter is the ONLY automatic filter capable of removing 1 micron particles. Oil can be preserved and reused indefinitely. Maintain oil quality and snack food processing standards throughout the frying process.
Removal of Removal of Free Fatty Acids (FFA’s) and Total Polar Compounds (TPC’s)
The Oberlin Filter provides ultra fine filtration that can remove Free Fatty Acids (FFA’s) and Total Polar Compounds (TPC’s) to bring your oil back to its virgin quality so it can be continually reused.

FFA Removal Benefits
-
Delaying the growth of TPC/FFA’s in conjunction with absorption of oil in the food product will eliminate the need to change or dispose of oil
-
Remove FFA’s down to 0.07%-0.09%
-
Can recover oil with up to 0.8% FFA
Extremely Clean Oil and Dry Filtered Solids
The Oberlin Filter will provide your fryer with a very clean supply of oil online during production or offline in a batch filtration process. Crumbs, fines and flour are automatically dried inside of the filter and discharged into a bin for easy disposal.
Dirty oil, filtered oil and the dry crumb that automatically discharges from filter.
Hot Oil Filtration Processes
Oberlin Filter has multiple processes to suit your hot oil filtration needs for snack food production. Our highly experienced engineering and laboratory team will work directly with you to develop a hot oil filtration process that will allow you to continually reuse your oil. With an Oberlin Filter you will never throw out your oil again!
Online Filtration for Continuous Crumb/Flour Removal
In this process the Oberlin Filter operates online during production to remove crumbs, fines and flour from your fryer. In some applications FFAs are removed as well.
Applications Include: Pork Rinds/Cracklin, Mozzarella Sticks & Onion Rings
Benefits:
-
Eliminate dark color and spots - Consistent product
-
Maintain fryers - Reduce frequency, duration and cost of cleaning
-
Enable longer production runs
-
Eliminate oil smoking
-
Extend oil life
Online Continuous Treatment System with FFA Removal
In this process the filtration system will remove FFAs online when straight filtration alone will not. Crumbs, fines and flour are also removed.
Applications Include: Tortilla Chips & Nuts
Benefits:
-
Eliminate dark color and spots - Consistent product
-
Maintain consistent Free Fatty Acid Level - Consistent and better taste
-
Extend product shelf life
-
Maintain fryers - Reduce frequency, duration and cost of cleaning
-
Enable longer production runs
-
Eliminate oil smoking
-
Extend oil life
Offline Batch Treatment with FFA Removal
In this process FFAs along with crumbs, fines and flour are removed offline in a batch tank. This is often done after a shift of production. This system can be used by multiple fryers.
Applications Include: Kettle Chips, Tortilla Chips & Nuts
Benefits:
-
Extend oil life by reducing Free Fatty Acid level
-
Eliminate waste oil entirely
-
Reduce oil purchase and disposal costs
