Production Manager, S-3 Division

Ocean Nutrition Canada- Omega-3 Production (Sept 2003 to June 2008)

The process of concentrating Omega-3 Free Fatty Acids from fish oil is a fractionation process very similar to what the Petroleum Industry uses. The oil is distilled (vaporized ) and under vacuum, the vaporized oil is entered into a fractionation column where the different fractions are separated and diverted into separate storage. From this process there are three main fractions:

The light boiler ( distillate ) which would be considered biodiesel is the first to be separated. This material is collected and used as fuel for diesel engines and heating plants in Europe. This product is very popular in Europe.

The second fraction would be your core product, concentrated Omega-3’s which are used for human consumption as a dietary supplement.

The third fraction, the residue from the distillation process is labelled boiler fuel. This would be the equivalent of bucker C in the petroleum industry. This product is primarily used in heating plants.

From fish oil fractionated to produced Omega-3 approximately 65% will be directed toward the energy sector.
