The production of peanut oil involves several technologies. It starts with pretreatment technology and peanut pressing technology for high temperature and cold pressing. The oil is then extracted using leaching and separation technology. At the end of the process, the peanut oil production line and the relevant key equipment are discussed. (Section 3.1)
How is peanut oil produced?
It has remained a favorite cooking oil among people for many years, making peanut oil production a primary focus of peanut processing. 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.
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.
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.
