Abstract
A continuous process for acidulation of all types of caustic soapstocks is described. The soap is diluted, heated, acidulated and centrifuged to yield three products: acid oil, acid water and a sludge phase. Typical performance data on various grades of soapstocks and the recovered products are given.
