Sunflower Oil Refining Equipment/polly seed Oil Refining Equipment

Sunflower oil refining equipment is used to refine crude sunflower oil to high quality cooking oil. But about extracting crude oil , we have two methods to process sunflower to oil, one is mechanical press method , the other is solvent extraction method.

Except the sunflower oil press line , We have three types sunflower oil refining equipment:

Batch type sunflower oil refining equipment . 

Semi-continuous type sunflower oil refining equipment.

Continuous type sunflower oil refining equipment .

Basic information about sunflower seeds:

Sunlower is high oil-content crop, mainly has two types: oil-sunflower and edible sunflower. Shell content of oil-sunflower is 29%-30%. And the seeds contents 40%-50% oil. In order to improve oil yielding rate and obtain high quality sunflower seed oil, the raw material should be treated as following processes: pretreatment, prepressing, extracting and refining.

 

Basic information about whole line for sunflower oil processing machine:

 

1.Pretreatment and prepress.

Brief processes:

Raw material--Magnitic seperating--Metal impurities--Cleaning--Other impurities--Husking--Sunflower seed hull--Cooking--Prepressing--Crude oil--Sunflower seed cake--Extracting Workshop

 

Functions of main parts:

Magnitic seperating:In order to remove the metal impurities, so that can prevent damaging the equipment and occuring safety accidents.

Cleaning: To remove the imourities in the raw matrial such as soil, stem and leaf, hull and moldy seeds.

Husking: In order to improve the oil yielding rate and the quality of crude oil and meal, reduce the wear to the equipment, the hull must be removed.

Cooking: This processing can improve prepressing oil yielding rate and the quality of the cake, adjust the moisture, temperature and plasticity of the flake.

Prepressing:To squeeze out part of the oil in the raw material, and improve extracting effect.

2.Solvent Extracting:

Brief processes:

Fresh Solvent--Cake--Extracting--Wet Meal--Desolventising--Meal--Miscella--Evaporating and stripping--Solvent mixture--Condensing and Recovering--Crude Oil--Solvent Recycling--Refining Workshop.

 

Functions of main parts:

Extracting:To extract the oil in the cake by solvent, the general solvent is 6# extraction solvent oil or commercial hexane.

Desolventising:To remove and recover the solvent in the meal; Dry and cool down the meal at the same time.

Evaporating and stripping:Heating the the miscella by indirect steam, so that can vaporize the solvent and concentrate the miscella.

Solvent recycling: This process is to recover the solvent, decrease solvent comsuption, keep safety prodution and improve product quality.

3. Sunflower oil refining equipment.

Brief processes:

Crude Oil--Hot water--Degumming--Oil Foot--Alkali liquor--Deacidfying--Soap Stock--

Activeted Clay--Decoloring --Waste Clay--Deodorizing--Dewaxing--Wax--Refined Oil

 

Functions of main parts:

Degumming:To remove the colloid soluble impurities, and prepare for the subsequent refining process.

Deacidfying:To remove the free fatty acid in the crude oil.

Decoloring: To remove the pigment in the crude oil by adding active clay, so that can improve the oil quality.

Deodorizing:To remove the odor in the oil, so that can improve the flavor, stability, color and quality of the oil.

Dewaxing: To renmove the wax in the oil and improve the quality of the oil.
