METHOD FOR PRODUCING HYDROGENATED FAT AND MILK FAT SUBSTITUTE ON ITS BASE, AS WELL AS HYDROGENATED FAT AND SUBSTITUTE OF MILK FAT Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23D7/00 C11C3/12 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: method for producing oil and fat product (hydrogenated fat), characterized in that it comprises preparing a mixture from (a) one or more optionally fractionated natural oils, with an initial natural content of mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids with a carbon chain length of 18 or more, at least 50%, and (b) one or more optionally fractionated oils, with an initial natural content of lauric acid more than 50%, so that the lauric acid content in the resulting mixture is at least 15% and its iodine number is 60÷120. The mixture obtained at the first stage is subjected to hydrogenation, until the iodine number is at most 10. Hydrogenated fat characterized in that it is obtained as described above. A method for obtaining an oil and fat product, characterized in that it comprises adding vegetable oil(s) to the above hydrogenated fat to achieve the mixture iodine number 50÷110 and the mixture melting point of 40÷50°C, and performing the transesterification. Milk fat substitute characterized in that it is obtained by the above method.

EFFECT: invention allows to reduce the hydrogen consumption per weight unit of the ready product in the implementation of virtually complete hydrogenation; to reduce the amount of heat generated per weight unit of the reaction mixture at full hydrogenation; to simplify the equipment and to reduce energy consumption for heating pipes, pumps and storage tanks.
