Chicken, Fish, Veggie Burger and Protein Processing
Hot Oil Filtration for Clean Oil & Dry Filtered Solids
Eliminate oil waste in your chicken, fish and veggie burger frying processes by removing Crumbs, Fines, or Flour
Benefits of Hot Oil Protein 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 almost all 1 micron particles. Oil can be preserved and reused indefinitely. Maintain consistent oil quality and food processing standards throughout the frying process, from morning to night.
Eliminate the catalysts that create Free Fatty Acids (FFA’s) and Total Polar Compound’s (TPC’s)
The Oberlin Filter provides ultra-fine filtration thereby eliminating the catalysts for Free Fatty Acid (FFA) and Total Polar Compound (TPC) growth. Product taste and shelf life are enhanced with the use of the Oberlin Filter.
Removal of Free Fatty Acids (FFA’s) and Total Polar Compounds (TPC’s)
When frying products like veggie burgers with a high moisture content, FFA’s will increase – sometimes rapidly. For these applications, Oberlin offers a continuous treatment system to remove crumbs, Free Fatty Acids (FFA’s) and Total Polar Compounds (TPC’s) to bring your oil back to virgin quality so it can be continually reused.
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 within the filter and discharged into a bin for easy disposal.
BENEFITS OVERVIEW
1 Micron Filtration Benefits
- Slows the breakdown of the oil
- All Crumbs/Fines/Flour removed from oil
- Eliminate dark color/spots
- Consistent color of product
- Eliminate oil smoking
- Reduce Cleaning of Fryer
- Enable longer production runs
- Eliminate waste oil entirely
- Reduce oil purchase and disposal costs
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
- Can recover oil with a starting point of up to 0.8% FFA
- Remove FFA’s down to 0.07%-0.09%

Hot Oil Filtration Processes
Oberlin Filter has multiple processes to suit your hot oil filtration needs for protein 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: Chicken & Fish
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: Veggie Burgers
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
