  • How is sunflower crushed for oil recovery?
  • Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed.‌
  • What is the processing technology of sunflower oil?
  • The processing technology of sunflower oil are generally: pressing, leaching, and refining process. The oil is extracted directly from the sunflower seeds by a screw type oil press machine.‌
  • What is sunflower seed processing?
  • Sunflower seed processing focuses on sunflower oil as the most valuable product. It is used as high-value oil in various food applications. The deoiled meal is considered a byproduct and is mostly used as animal feed. In 2011, annual world production of deoiled sunflower meal was at 16 million tons (FAO, 2013).‌
  • How is sunflower oil extracted?
  • In the modern oil industry, they use chemical solvents (such as hexane) to extract sunflower oil, and refined by solvent extraction,degumming, neutralization, bleaching and other processes. Sunflower oil has high oil yield and high economic benefits, and the daily output can reach 300-3000 tons.‌
  • What equipment is used in sunflower oil production line?
  • The sunflower oil production line mainly includes sunflower seed pretreatment equipment, oil pressing equipment, oil cake solvent extraction equipment, and crude oil refining equipment. The processing technology of sunflower oil are generally: pressing, leaching, and refining process.‌
  • Why is prepress solvent extraction better than sunflower meal?
  • Because sunflower oil has a substantially higher economic value than sunflower meal, process economics improve significantly as the oil recovery yield increases. Therefore, prepress solvent extraction, with the highest oil recovery yield, is the process method utilized today for the majority of the sunflower seed that is crushed globally.
