Technologies for extraction of oil from oilseeds

  • How many oil seeds are there?
  • There are about 40 different oil seeds whose oil can be consumed (Lennerts 1983), but only a few are significant in the total world trade and supply of oilseeds. Oil crops are grown world over under varied agroclimatic situations and are vital commodities in the trade and commerce of many economies.
  • What extraction techniques are used for oil recovery from oilseeds?
  • Various extraction techniques and importance of solvent choice for oil recovery from oilseed are discussed. Mechanical, aqueous, enzymatic, supercritical CO 2 and hexane extraction of important oilseeds are reviewed. Recent developments in crude oil refining processes are also included in this chapter.
  • What is edible oil production from seeds?
  • Edible oil production from seeds involves several unit operations, including seed cleaning, conditioning, extraction, and refining . Mechanical pressing or a solvent, usually hexane, can be used for oil extraction from seeds.
  • What is the main oil seed crop?
  • Among the oil seeds, soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is the chief oil seed crop. Increased demand for soybean has occurred due to the rising consumption of soya oil, and rapid growth in meal demand. Worldwide it was grown over an area of 96.66 mha with production of 210.86 mmt during 2008–2009 (Table 1.5).
