Novonesis Quara® LowP for full degumming of vegetable oils allows you to increase your oil yield. It also allows you to eliminate phosphorous impurities. That means you can consistently meet end-product specifications for phosphorus levels without adjusting temperature or oil pH.  The result is lower operating costs.  

Also available in 27.5 L pack size.

Product features, details and benefits

  • Extra yield levels*Up to 1.5%

  • Improved sustainability

    By generating more oil, this product allows you to get more with lower raw material and process inputs. That can potentially reduce greenhouse gas emissions from your process by up to 2%. On top of that, the process of reheating during centrifugation step is eliminated, resulting in reduced energy consumption.


  • Reduced operating costsThis product works at higher temperature and lower pH. That means you can reduce operating costs.

  • Working pH range

    3.8-4.2


  • Working temperature range

    60°C -75°C


  • Enabling easier degumming

Quara® LowP releases more neutral oil. That's because its high activity on phospholipids means it hydrolyzes more of them. That allows you to increase your oil yield and your profitability. This robust and innovative PLA1  enzyme weakens the emulsifying properties of gums. That makes phosphorous removal easier.  With Quara® LowP you also reduce the need for acid and caustic soda in your refining process. That means a reduction in the formation of low value by-products like gums and soap.

This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.

Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.
