Today’s challenges for all food companies

Evolution and growth in

regulations Stringer food safety norms

Connected consumers

Consumers demand for trust, high

quality, safe foods

Globalization and trade

agreements

Changing patterns of

consumption

Today’s Challenges

Balancing costs and resource constraints, while complexity and

demand for trust and transparency are increasing.

Food safety requires knowledge, preventive measures and collaboration across the supply chain!

Healthy fatsThere is growing potential to differentiate products in terms of‘health’, unsaturated fat content, especially for olive oil andnuts/seed oils.

Gentle processingConsumers look for more natural products, gentle processed whichpreserve taste and the nutritional values.

Sustainable sourcingConsumer awareness of the controversy surrounding palm oilproduction will become a major issue. For brands it is time to beproactive, not reactive.

The role of refining

Remove the unwanted compounds, while preserving quality, sustainability and nutritional benefits.

3-MCPDE and GE mitigation in oilseeds

Bunge EMEA follows full scale approach from agriculture till product applications.

• Top priority R&D project

• Capital expenditures to implement mitigation tools

• Mitigation strategy: prevention preferred to removal

• High level monitoring based on internal and external analyses (>500 samples in 2017)

17

Chlorine compounds can be significantly reduced during washing.Bleaching earth selection: do not introduce “available” chlorine sources.

Avoid 3-MCPDE formation = avoid/remove precursors

Laboratory olive oil refining test

18

High Free Fatty Acids (FFA) in the crude oil is a markerof potentially higher diglyceride content (DAG).Higher DAG leads to higher GE content in refined oil(depending on deodorization conditions too).

Avoid GE formation = f(crude oil quality)

Industrial data

Selection of raw material is important

• Supply chain control, management

• Integrated crushing refining plant:fresh seed processing under control

19

Simple reduction of deodorization temperature � Potential conflictwith removal of volatile “impurities”.Dual temperature profile (stripping and deodorization) � GEreduction with no risk on quality.

Industrial deodorization test results (physical refining of sunflower oil)

Avoid GE formation = f(deodorization temperature)

Rapeseed oil: Stable, low 3-MCPDE and GE all years.

Significant reduction in 3-MCPD and GE values obtained for sunflower and soybean oil• Reduced mean values,• Narrower data range (less/no peak values)• GE expressed as free glycidol < 1 mg/kg (all refineries)• GE expressed as free glycidol < 0.5 mg/kg (baby food applications)• 3MCPDE expressed as free 3MCPD < 1mg/kg (typical values)

3-MCPDE and GE successfully mitigated by preventive measur es inBEMEA seed oils refineries.

Influence of Chemical Interesterification (CIE) on proces scontaminants:

• Reduces MCPDE level but creates high amounts of GE.

• GE can be removed from interesterified fats by post bleaching.

• Mitigation strategies:

• Post-treatment,

• Remove 3-MCPDE present in the raw material by alkaline catalyst,

• Remove GE formed during CIE by acid activated BE treatment,

• Selection of raw material (tropical oils low in 3-MCPDE)

• Changes recipes for Interesterified fat / Liquid oil blends.

23

Food Safety, Quality, Health and Nutrition cannot be treated inseparated ways.

Food safety requires full control of the supply chains.

Mitigation of emerging risks (e.g. pesticides) requires knowledgeand cooperation of authorities between the regions.

Mitigation of environmental pollutants compete with the formationof heat induced compounds.

Science is progressing very fast; new technology requires moretime and big investments.

Consumers expect less processed products and this is a foodsafety challenge!
