The diagram depicts the process by which edible oils, fats, and margarine are produced from various raw materials.
Overall, the process consists of eight major stages, beginning with the collection of raw materials and culminating in the delivery of finished products to supermarkets and shops.
Firstly, raw materials such as sunflowers and coconuts are gathered and transported to a silo for storage. After that, these materials should be crushed and milled in order to break them down into smaller, workable pieces. The next step involves pressing the crushed material, which allows oil to be extracted, then it is filtered to remove impurities. At the same time, some oils go through a steaming process and, as a result, three main types of oils are produced: sunflower, coconut, and refined oils. Subsequently, these edible oils and fats are packaged and readied for transport. Finally, the finished products are delivered to supermarkets and shops where they are made available to consumers.
