Abstract

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of deodorized and stabilized food-grade marine oils by submitting marine oils to a counter-current steam distillation (CCSD) in a thin film column containing a structured packing and, if desired, adding antioxidant(s), to the food-grade marine oils thus obtained and to their uses in the food/feed, cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical industry.
