Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed.
What is a prepress solvent extraction method in a sunflower crushing plant?
In a typical sunflower crushing plant using the prepress solvent extraction method, the initial steps of seed pre-cleaning and seed drying are located in the seed receiving section of the facility, prior to seed storage.
What is industrial pressing of oilseeds?
Industrial pressing of oilseeds is realized using continuous screw presses. The presses are fed with crude or pre-treated seeds. Types of pre-treatments (thermal pre-treatment, size reduction, mechanical sieving, etc.) differ for various seed species (Carr 1997). Each type of seed pre-treatment provides its own advantages.
Which extraction method is best for sunflower seeds?
Therefore, prepress solvent extraction, with the highest oil recovery yield, is the process method utilized today for the majority of the sunflower seed that is crushed globally.
