How peanut oil is pressed?
Pressing: The steamed or cooked peanut embryo slices are then pressed by Groundnut oil press machine for oil extraction. The screw peanut oil or Groundnut oil machine can ensure the original cell structure of the peanut is destroyed under mechanical force to obtain a pressed crude oil.
How to extract peanut oil from groundnut meal?
However, the screwing process of pressing is a high residual oil rate. In this time, the chemical method solvent extraction will be a good method to fully extract peanut oils. The solvent extraction method can create the residual oil rate of the groundnut meal below 1%.
