  • 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.
  • 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.
  • How is sunflower oil extracted?
  • A volatile hydrocarbon like hexane is used as a solvent to extract the oil. The harvested sunflower oil seeds are passed over magnets to subtraction any metal traces, and other impurities are getting rid off by cleaning sieve and destoners. Then the outer covering (hulls) of the seeds are removed to get pure seeds.
  • How does a sunflower extractor recover the solvent pumped to the extractor?
  • The solvent evaporated from the sunflower meal and the miscella are both recovered in the solvent recovery system within the solvent extraction process area. A typical sunflower plant will recover 99.8?99.9% of the solvent pumped to the extractor.
