Abstract
A method for dry fractionation of a fatty material which comprises cooling the fatty material and then fractionating the material into a solid fraction and a liquid fraction, said cooling being carried out by introducing the fatty material in a fluid state into a filter chamber of a filter apparatus having pressing function and maintaining the fat material therein at a crystal deposition temperature until a predetermined amount of crystals are formed, and said fractionation being carried out by pressing the filter chamber to fractionate the fat material into the solid fraction and the liquid fraction.
