How to start a sunflower oil mill plant?
To start a sunflower oil mill plant, there are several basic machinery requirements that need to be met. These include machinery for seed cleaning, seed conditioning, oil extraction, oil filtration, steam generation, and oil filling. There are various processes involved in Sunflower Oil Mill Plants.
What are the processes involved in sunflower oil mill plants?
In a Sunflower Oil Mill Plant, several processes are involved: Seed Cleaning, Seed Conditioning, Oil Extraction, Oil Filtration, Steam Generation, and Oil Filling. Before oil extraction, oilseed is passed through the seeds cleaner to remove impurities such as dust, leaves, and metals.
How are sunflower seeds conditioned?
Before oil extraction, sunflower seeds are conditioned using steam in a Vertical Cooking Kettle. This process is essential to prepare the seeds for optimal oil extraction. The conditioned sunflower seeds are then fed into the chamber for oil extraction. The sunflower seeds contain 35 ¨C 40 % oil content and double pressing is required to extract maximum oil, leaving 9 ¨C 11 % residual oil in the sunflower meal which is an excellent source of Animal Feed.
