Physical refining of rice bran oil (RBO) with acidity between 4.0 and 12.4% has been investigated in relation to degumming and dewaxing pretretments. It appears that physical refining after combined low‐temperature (10°C) degumming‐dewaxing produces good‐quality RBO with respect to color, free fatty acid, oryzanol, and tocopherol content.
