  • What is solvent extraction of soybeans?
  • Source: Penk, G., in World Conference on Emerging Technologies in the Fats and Oils Industry, edited by A.R. Baldwin, American Oil Chemists’ Society, Champaign, IL, 1985. Solvent extraction of soybeans is a diffusion operation in which the solvent (hexane) selectively dissolves miscible components (oil) from other substances.
  • How is oil extracted from soybeans?
  • Solvent extraction using hexane is the primary method for recovery of oil from soybeans, although some mechanical extraction is still used.
  • What is a safe extraction method for oil from soybeans?
  • Dust explosions and personal injuries from machinery, falls, burns, asphyxiation, and other causes must be considered in developing a comprehensive safety program. An alternative to solvent extraction for extraction of oil from soybeans is the use of mechanical pressing.
  • Why is process improvement important in soybean extraction plants?
  • Process improvement in extraction plants has continued with increasing emphasis on energy efficiency, cost reduction, reducing hexane loss, quality of meal and oil, and increased capacity, driven by a six-fold increase in soybean production since 1950 and by an increase in energy costs since 1970.
