Solvent extraction is a chemical-based oil extraction technique used to extract oil from vegetables, oilseeds, and nuts by using solvent, and Hexane is considered to be the most preferred choice for all oil refineries. Provided by the top solvent extraction plant manufacturer in India, this technique of oil extraction has become the most popular these days to extract all types of vegetable oils. 

 


Hexane-based extraction cycles are in popular use

 

Industrial oil processing for the edible oils, by and large, includes the solvent extraction step which might be gone before squeezing. Hexane-based cycles have been in business operations for quite a while. For such cycles, it is feasible to accomplish oil yields over 95% with a dissolvable recuperation of more than 95% which in contrast with 60 to 70% oil yield by mechanical expeller squeezing technique. 

 

The solvent extraction technique wipes out all but about ½% of residual oil, makes use of less HP, and needs minimal maintenance. Carried out in a facility provided by the top solvent extraction plant manufacturer, the solvent extraction procedure is relatively efficient and reliable, and due to the same reason, this methodology is the primary source of separating large tonnages of oil from different types of vegetable seeds. 

 

Key advantages of solvent extraction process carried out in a facility manufactured by the leading solvent extraction and pilot plant suppliers:

 

●        Simple in structure yet offers stable performance

●        The additional horizontal grid in the system plate prevents the miscella from flowing back

●        The wet meal is discharged by the material discharger

●        Avoids meal bridging and non-uniform wet meal discharging

●        Also extends the serviceable life of the wet meal conveyor

●        Composed of pre-extraction, extraction, and draining sections.

●        There is material turnover in the process that makes the extraction uniform and thorough.
