Custom Distillation Services

 

Marine Oils

Molecular Distillation selectively concentrates key fatty acids while removing unwanted impurities, such as PCBs, mercury and other toxins from fish and other marine oils. We achieve toxin reduction in fish oil to a level that is 1/2 of the GOED standard. We accomplish deodorization, purification and concentration of valuable DHA and EPA Omega-3 fatty acids, without thermal degradation.

Flavors and Food Colorants

Remove traces of pesticides, while maintaining the valuable natural components of flavors and colors. TMC's short-path, thin-film vacuum separation process provides a gentle and proven method of purifying and fractionating. Many natural oils can be separated using molecular distillation without danger of thermal decomposition.

Cosmeceuticals

Molecular distillation of cosmetic raw materials or intermediates adds value to your products.  Materials such as meadow foam oil and citrus waxes can be distilled to remove undesirable odors, colors, and  impurities.

 

Specialty Chemicals

Heat sensitive specialty chemicals, such as silicones, can be molecularly distilled under vacuum, to protect them from thermal degradation. Purity is checked with GC analysis.

Resins and Synthetic Oils

Synthetic oils and resins can be purified on our short path distillation equipment. We can remove odor, reaction by-products and colors. TMC has worked with perfluoropolyethers, chlorotrifluoroethylenes, polyols, epoxy resins and many other natural and synthetic polymers.
