Abstract
A procedure is described for decreasing the cyclopropene ring acids in cottonseed oil triglycerides as indicated by the Halphen test. Continuous reaction of the oil in the presence of aluminum silicate catalyst at elevated temp effectively decreases its cyclopropene acid content. The effect of temp and space velocity are described from temp of 170-225C. The treated oil produces no observable effect on egg quality or production.
