Commercial cold pressed extraction of peanut oil is carried out using a twin-screw press at temperatures below 60°C ( Wang, Liu, Hu, et al., 2016; Zheng, Ren, Su, Yang, & Zhao, 2013 ). Lastly, a frame filter is used to press and filter three times under 30°C to obtain the cold pressed peanut oil ( Wang, Liu, Hu, et al., 2016 ).
