GloryOil Solvent Extraction Plant

SHARE

Solvent extraction plant is a better way to extract oil from oil seeds, and after extracting, the oil residue rate in meal will be less than 1%. Solvent extraction method is very suitable for the oil seeds with low oil content rate. Solvent Extraction is to use n-hexane to soak the oil cakes, then the oil in cakes will be dissolved in n-hexane, at last, pump the mixed oil, also called miscella. The n-hexane will be evaporated later from the miscella, then by condensing, it can be recycled and used over and over again.

And for the oil solvent extraction plant, the raw materials have two kinds:

  1. The pressed oil cake from the oilseed pretreament &pre-pressing plant, such as the peanut cake, sunflower seed cake.
  2. The oil seeds which have been pretreted, can be processing in oil solvent extraction plant directly, such as the soybean, the rice bran.

Different type of solvent extractor:

  • Below 20t/day, we use the small scale tank type extractor.
  • From 20t/day to 600t/day, we use the rotocel extractor.
  • Above 600t/day, we use the loop type extractor

The main machines used in the solvent extraction plant:

  1. Solvent pumps: continuously spray solvent to the rotary-type extractor
  2. Roary extractor: Spray and soak the pre-pressed cake with solvent so that oil fats can be dissolved in solvent(form miscella). After processing, you can get wet meal and miscella (mixed oil).
  3. DTDC: used to separate the solvent from the wet meal.
  4. Miscella tank 1st: pump the miscella (oil with solvent) in to the miscella 1st , and then add 10% saline water to it. The phospholipid and impurities in the miscella will react with the saline wter, at last the reactant precipitate, reaching the goal of purifying.
  5. Miscella tank 2nd: the purified miscella will be pumped into it.
  6. Miscella stripping: it will remove the remaining solvent in miscella. And the solvent will be discharged to condenser for recycling.
  7. condensers: used to cooling the solvent gas separated from the wet meal and miscella for recycling.
