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 processed?
Only four plants process peanut oil in the United States. Peanut oil is processed by conventional caustic refining, adsorbent bleaching, and deodorization. The food uses of peanut oil and protein are reviewed in this article. Abstract This article reviews the production, processing, and food uses of peanut oil and protein.
How much is peanut oil worth?
Historically, over the period of 1980¨C2018, US production of oilseed peanuts has increased from 2303 to 7234 million pounds while cash value varied from US$579 million to US$1.64 billion. US production of peanut oil from 2005 to 2017 varied from 181 to 260 million pounds.
What is the production flow of cold pressing peanut oil?
The production flow of the cold pressing process of peanut oil is shown in Fig. 3.3. The temperature rises from 60 to 90°C during the process, and the oil/residual oil ratio of the system decreases gradually, reaching 4.5% at 90°C (as shown in Fig. 3.4).
