This paper focuses on the rice bran oil (RBO) industry chain, providing a comprehensive exploration of its fundamental theory, current status, technological progress, challenges, and future prospects. The fundamental theory section elaborates on the chemical composition, nutritional value, historical evolution of production processes, and economic foundations of RBO. The current status analysis covers the global market, production mechanisms, technological bottlenecks, and quality control. Technological progress introduces advancements in extraction and refining, product innovation, and digital management technologies. Nutritional practices discuss the applications of RBO in healthy diets, chronic disease prevention and treatment, and drug development. Controversies and challenges involve environmental impact, market price volatility, and policy regulation. Future prospects analyze trends in technological innovation, globalization, and sustainable development strategies. In 2024, the annual rice cultivation area in Liaoning Province, China reached 7.334 million hectares, yielding abundant potential rice bran resources. However, the actual utilization rate remains below 30%. By integrating relevant research, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive theoretical basis and practical guidance for the further development of the RBO industry chain.
