The main components of vegetable oil refining equipment include refining tanks, decolorization tanks, filters, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems, etc. According to different operating methods and processes, vegetable oil refining equipment can be divided into three types: batch vegetable oil refining equipment, semi-continuous vegetable oil refining equipment and fully continuous vegetable oil refining equipment. Each type of vegetable oil refining equipment has its own advantages, and you can choose the right equipment according to your actual needs.
Batch vegetable oil refining equipment
Batch vegetable oil refining equipment is a kind of equipment with simple and convenient operation and relatively low investment cost. It is suitable for frequent conversion of various oil products. The main components of vegetable oil refining equipment for batch include oil refining tank, decolorization tank, filter, vacuum system and heat transfer system.
| Refinery tanks | Used in degumming and deacidification sections |
| Decolorizing tank | For oil decolorization |
| Filter | Used to filter bleach clay for decolorization |
| Vacuum system | Provide vacuum environment for decolorization and deodorization section |
| Heat transfer system | Provide heat for crude oil in each section |

Semi-continuous vegetable oil refining equipment
Compared with batch vegetable oil refining equipment, semi-continuous vegetable oil refining equipment has moderate investment and lower oil loss, so it is widely selected. Semi-continuous equipment is added to the deacidification and deodorization tower and fatty acid tank to achieve continuous deacidification and deodorization processes. The main components of vegetable oil refining equipment for semi-continuous includes refining tanks, decolorization tanks, filters, deacidification and deodorization towers, fatty acid tanks, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems.

| Decolorizing tank | For oil decolorization |
| Filter | Used to filter bleach clay for decolorization |
| Deacidification and deodorization tower | For continuous deacidification and deodorization |
| Fatty acid tank | Used to collect fatty acids in deacidification |
| Vacuum system | Provide vacuum environment for decolorization and deodorization section |
| Heat transfer system | Provide heat for crude oil in each section |
Semi-continuous vegetable oil refining equipment combines the characteristics of batch and fully continuous vegetable oil refining equipment to improve production efficiency and product quality.

Fully continuous vegetable oil refining equipment
Fully continuous vegetable oil refining equipment adopts continuous production at each stage, which has the advantages of small production consumption, low oil loss and more stable quality of refined oil. The main components of vegetable oil refining equipment for fully include refining tanks, centrifuges, decolorization towers, filters, deacidification and deodorization towers, fatty acid tanks, vacuum systems and heat transfer systems. Different from the first two types of equipment, the fully continuous vegetable oil refining equipment introduces a centrifuge to separate soap stock.

| Centrifuge | Separation of soapstock |
| Decolorizing tower | For oil decolorization |
| Filter | Used to filter bleach clay for decolorization |
| Deacidification and deodorization tower | For continuous deacidification and deodorization |
| Fatty acid tank | Used to collect fatty acids in deacidification |
| Vacuum system | Provide vacuum environment for decolorization and deodorization section |
| Heat transfer system | Provide heat for crude oil in each section |
