Abstract:
    The present invention relates to a method for production of two types of edible oils, an oil type with high diacylglycerol content (DAG oil) containing at least 8 wt % diacylglycerol and another oil type with low diacylglycerol content (TAG oil) containing less than 8 wt % diacylglycerol, from a vegetable oil. The method comprises subjecting a vegetable oil to at least one stage of short-path distillation under vacuum level of not more than 0.01 Torr and at temperature of not more than 300 DEG C., wherein DAG oil is obtained as distillate and whereas TAG oil is obtained as residue.
