Introduction: in the second half of the second half of the year, a new standard of edible oil will be issued soon Insiders believe that domestic small and medium-sized edible oil production enterprises will face survival crisis at that time As the new standard will more strictly regulate the technical standards of the two production processes, the current situation of the mixture of fish and dragons in the market will certainly change, and a large number of weak edible oil production enterprises will be eliminated because the product quality cannot meet the standards According to experts, PDE is the second largest edible oil producer in the world, with an annual output of about 10 million tons in 2002 It is predicted that in the near future, the per capita annual consumption of edible oil in China will be increased to more than 15 kg, and the total annual consumption in China will also exceed 14 million tons At present, the sales volume of edible oil market in China is more than 100 billion yuan Relevant departments have predicted that the oil shortage in China is increasing by 3% - 5% every year The huge market and development space not only make the edible oil production industry become the target of investors, but also the market competition is very fierce By the middle and late 1990s, there were more than 2800 oil factories (workshops) in Heilongjiang Province alone There were more than 16000 various kinds of edible oil production enterprises in China, and there were more than 500 brands of edible oil on the market PDE National Food Bureau quality management office said that the current standard of edible oil used was formulated from 1986 to 1988, which has become obsolete over time The introduction of the new standard of edible oil is more prudent, because the big standards of products such as soybean oil and peanut oil are easily related to the technical barriers and trade barriers of product import, so it is very important to comply with the WTO principles before the introduction of the new standard PDE said that with the introduction of the new standard, a large number of weak edible oil production enterprises will be eliminated because the product quality cannot meet the standard Industry insiders pointed out that in the past, the threshold for investment in edible oil was low, making the quality of edible oil products uneven The market access system and new edible oil standards issued by the state have set up a higher standard competition platform, which will make some enterprises withdraw from the field of edible oil production There are two methods of PDE in the process of edible vegetable oil: pressing and leaching Due to the high output of leaching method, it has been used by many enterprises However, because a chemical product that needs to be added in the process will have trace residues in the product oil, it may not be suitable for those consumers who pursue the natural quality of food However, industry insiders stressed that the new standard does not exclude the two oil production processes, because they have their own advantages and meet different levels of consumption needs At present, a small amount of residual solvent oil is also allowed in the national regulations, which will not pose a threat to human health The main reason why the relevant departments emphasize the explicit production process is that consumers should have the right to know According to the person in charge of drafting the new standard from the standard quality center of the State Food Administration, the new standard has examined and approved 8 national compulsory standards and 5 processing method standards for vegetable oil, which will greatly improve the requirements of impurities, moisture and other indicators compared with the old standards At the same time, the new standard has a significant impact on the production enterprises“ Pressing and "leaching technology are divided compulsively, and the quality differences between the two processes are strictly explained, and the edible oil enterprises are required to make the product manufacturing process compulsively, namely" pressing or "leaching", which is indicated on the identification of the products sold On the other hand, in the edible oil industry, in addition to the physical pressing method adopted by individual peanut oil manufacturers, most of them, including soybean oil, corn oil and rapeseed oil, adopt the leaching method Obviously, the standard of edible oil, which is beneficial to the former, is bound to set off a storm in the industry Although the new standard of PDE does not exclude the two oil production processes, it is easy for informed consumers to conclude that physical pressing is more advantageous after comparing the safety and health of the two oil production processes PDE can therefore foresee that, with the growing awareness of people's pursuit of food quality and safety, a large number of weak edible oil production enterprises will be eliminated due to the failure of product quality, which will be conducive to the further improvement of brand concentration PDE PDE
