Industry Immersion: Camille B. Sudario 4CHE-A

Universal Robina Corporation (URC) was founded in 1954 and has since expanded into various food and agro-industrial businesses. The report focuses on URC's Agro-Industrial Group oil plant division located in Pasig City, which processes soybeans. The division has three main sections: seed preparation, oil extraction, and refinery. In seed preparation, soybeans are cracked, cooked and flaked. In oil extraction, oil is extracted from flakes using solvents to produce meal and crude oil. The crude oil then undergoes refining processes like degumming and bleaching to produce refined soy oil. The student learned about applying science and math principles, problem solving, communication skills, and lifelong learning through

• Located at # 16 Santiago St., bagong ilog, pasig city
OIL PLANT DIVISION
• Plant Operation Assistant
Tasks:
• to observe and learn how all the plants operate;
• to familiarize myself with the different equipment and
processes involved in their operations;
• to understand the underlying principles;
• to monitor and record pertinent equipment parameters,
such as temperature and pressure, at the oil extraction
plant;
• and to operate some of the controls at the seed
preparation and oil extraction plants.
OIL PLANT DIVISION
• Can be further divided into three:
1) Seed Preparation Plant
2) Oil Extraction Plant
3) Refinery Plant

• Produces full fat, soya meal, and soya oil


Full Fat – soya oil is not extracted
Soya Meal – soya oil is extracted
SEED PREPARATION PLANT
SEED PREPARATION PLANT
• Is where the whole soya seeds are cracked, cooked, and
flaked in preparation for the oil extraction plant.

For Full Fat:
• Is where the soya flakes are toasted, dried, and
cooled in the DTDC
For Soya Meal:
• Is where soya oil is extracted from the soya flakes;
• Then the meal is Desolventized, toasted, dried, and
cooled in the DTDC;
• While the miscella goes to the distillation system to
separate the solvent from the oil.
• Then the solvent goes to the solvent recovery system.
