fine filtering


Explanation:
L'ultima fase del processo di raffinazione è la brillantatura che consente , tramite una ulteriore fase di filtrazione, di eliminare qualsiasi sostanza estranea ed ottenere un aspetto particolarmente limpido e brillante. L'olio in uscita viene insufflato di azoto per proteggerlo dalle ossidazioni e stoccato in appositi serbatoi d'acciaio inox posti all'interno di una struttura a temperatura costante di circa 20°.

La chiarificazione è la prima filtrazione, quella che segue l\'estrazione, la brillantatura è una filtrazione successiva, proprio l\'ultimo passaggio della filtrazione.
