  • How to optimise shea butter production by mechanical extraction?
  • Shea butter (SB) production by mechanical extraction (ME) was optimised by box-behnken (BB) experimental design of response surface methodology (RSM). The process parameters studied (with their ranges) were sample weight (100 – 200 g), temperature (60 – 120C) and duration of applied pressure (10 – 30 min) to optimise the yield of SB.
  • How is shea butter extracted?
  • Across all African-producing countries, shea butter is extracted from shea kernels principally via two processing techniques: the conventional or traditional or classic one involving most of the time a kneading (or churning) operation, and the one obtained through an oil pressing machine.
  • How to process shea nut kernels?
  • For processing Shea nut kernels, we need a combination of mechanical pressing unit ( Oil Mill ) and solvent extraction plant (SEP). The following are steps involved in Shea Butter Extraction Plant : Shea nut kernels are separated and cleaned to remove impurities such as dust, metal, plant stalks.
  • What is the mechanical press method of shea butter extraction?
  • The mechanical press method of shea butter extraction has been reported by FAO and CFC (2002) but one of the earliest researches works on the use of the mechanical press was Marchand (1988). His research revealed that equipped with a jack that exerts 30 tonnes of force, a shea butter press could crush more than 3 kg of shea kernels within 20 min.
