This chapter covers the technology used for processing peanut oil. It starts by explaining the pretreatment technology and peanut pressing technology for high temperature and cold pressing peanut oil. It then discusses the peanut oil extraction technology, which includes leaching and separation technology.
What are the different methods of peanut oil production?
Currently, there are two main methods of peanut oil production: a) Traditional Pressing (Mechanical Method): In this method, a peanut oil press is utilized to squeeze out the oil from the peanuts. The mechanical force applied through pressing allows the oil to be extracted effectively.
What technology is used for extracting peanut oil?
The leaching method, also known as the extraction method, is the technology used for extracting peanut oil. It involves using certain organic solvents that can dissolve fat to spray and immerse the oil-bearing materials, eventually separating the fat from the materials.
What equipment is used for cold pressing of peanut oil?
Figure 3.8 shows the equipment used for cold pressing of peanut oil. First, a sheller is used to shell the peanuts. Then, the peanut kernels are transported to the low-temperature drying oven for drying after being subjected to precleaning, gravity/magnetic separation, and de-stoner cleaning.
