Advantage of Low Temperature Extraction for Macadamia Nut Oil

• Subcritical low temperature extraction and low temperature desolventizing can reduce the oxidation rancidity of oil and ensure its nutrition and natural flavor are not destroyed and changed.
• Sub-critical extraction of high-quality macadamia nut oil has golden color, unique nut flavor, high smoke point, low melting point, stable nature, monounsaturated fatty acid content, rich in functional components, is a good healthy woody vegetable oil.
• Macadamia meal is rich in protein and polysaccharides, which can be further processed and developed for products such as defatted proteins and defatted polysaccharides.

Macadamia Nut Oil Application
