Vegetable Oil Solvent Extraction Turnkey Project

Oil Solvent Extraction Turnkey Project: Solvent extraction is a process to extract the oil from oil bearing materials by means of a solvent. A typical solvent used is hexane, a by-product of petroleum. The solvent extraction plant is designed to extract oil directly from oil seeds containing less than 20% oil, like soybeans, after flaking. Or it extracts oils from pre-pressed or fully pressed cake of seeds containing more than 20% oil like sunflowers, peanuts, cotton seed, palm kernels, canola, copra, castor and a variety of other materials. The purpose of solvent plant extraction is to remove most of the oil contained in the seed.  Chain extractor advantages: The material in the feed bed is divided into several independent units at all levels to effectively prevent the mixing of oil flows on the material layer, it can ensure the concentration gradient between the segments shower. Each cell is formed in the material soaking zone for better im…
