About vegetable oils; soya-bean oil and its fractions, other than crude, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified

HS code 150790 covers the trade of soya-bean oil and its fractions, excluding crude oil. Soya-bean oil is one of the most widely consumed vegetable oils globally, with a diverse range of applications in the food, cosmetic, and industrial sectors. As a major agricultural commodity, the soya-bean oil industry plays a crucial role in the global economy, contributing to food security, industrial development, and international trade.

Production process

The production of soya-bean oil typically involves several key steps. First, soya beans are harvested and cleaned. The beans are then crushed or pressed to extract the crude oil, which undergoes refining, bleaching, and deodorizing processes to remove impurities and improve the oil's quality and stability. The refined soya-bean oil is then packaged and distributed for various end-uses.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the soya-bean oil industry include soya beans as the primary raw material, as well as processing equipment such as crushers, refiners, and packaging machinery. Additionally, the industry relies on energy sources, transportation infrastructure, and a skilled workforce to support the production and distribution of soya-bean oil and its fractions.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 150790 is refined soya-bean oil and its various fractions, such as soya-bean olein and soya-bean stearin. These products are widely used in the food industry for cooking, frying, and as ingredients in processed foods. They also find applications in the production of 340600 Candles, 340111 Soap, and 382490 Miscellaneous chemical products.
