FAQ

  • QHow is oil extracted from rapeseed?
    AConventionally, oil extraction from rapeseed is achieved by screw-pressing, either by expeller pressing (full-pressing) or by pre-pressing of the seeds, followed by solvent extraction. Oil contents in the resulting press cakes are in the range of 5 %–10 % (full-press) or 15 %–18 % (pre-press) (Kemper, 2005).
  • QWhat factors influence rapeseed oil production?
    AThe authors found that pressure and extraction duration are the most influencing parameters together with temperature in the case of rapeseed. Under optimal conditions, SFE-CO 2 yielded 89.9% and 78.5% of oil from rapeseed and sunflower, respectively.
  • QWhats is your material of your machine?
    ACarbon steel or stainless steel(standard type is sus398, it can be customized according to your request)
  • QWhat are the main aims of oilseed preparation?
    AThe main aims of the oilseed preparation include: weakening or breaking the walls of the oil-containing cells, increasing the oil extraction by pressing seeds with a high oil content before solvent extraction and shaping the material to facilitate solvent access to the oil .
  • QHow much rapeseed oil can be extracted by cold pressing?
    AA nozzle diameter of 10 mm, a screw frequency of 50 Hz, and a press head temperature of 80 °C ensured the maximum pressed rapeseed oil yield of 26.65% within the applied experimental domain. The crude oil extraction degree achieved by cold pressing was 60.8% of the rapeseed oil yield obtained by the Soxhlet method.
  • QDoes microwave pre-treatment of rapeseed increase oil extraction yield?
    AWroniak et al. (2016) reported the microwave pre-treatment of rapeseeds for 3 min would help to increase the oil extraction yield up to 64.5% with the rapeseeds presented 9% of moisture content. Microwave pre-treatment helps to reduce the moisture content of rapeseed, which affected the oil extraction yield from the seeds.
  • QHow much does rapeseed oil contribute to global oil production?
    ARapeseed oil contributes 20% in overall oil production worldwide . Rapeseed oil has been used by people for thousands of years for various purposes, for example, animal feed, food, as well as in industry. Rapeseed oil is also used for biofuel production.
