100-200 cotton seed cooking oil production process with high quality

Pretreatment Section in vegetable oil processing plant

In the vegetable oil processing plant, before the extrusion of oil from oil seeds, an oil pretreatment process is typically undertaken to improve the efficiency of production and to ultimately save on costs.

In the oil processing plant, the pretreatment process typically involves working procedures of removing impurities from oil materials.

These impurities include the following items:

1. Organic impurities, such as stems and leaves, cord and chemical fibers.

2. Inorganic impurities such as soil and metal.

The entire oil processing plant generally includes: cleaning, sieving, hulling, separation, cracking, particle making, frying, softening, flaking, drying, and expelling oil materials.

Main machines:

Oil seeds cleaning: vibrating Separator, specific-gravity stoner, magnetic separator, etc.

Oil seeds crushing: toothed cracking roll (two pair), disc huller.

Oil seeds softening: horizontal softening kettle.

Oil seeds flaking: paired or two-pair flaking roll.

Oil seeds drying: chain dryer, air drying conveyor.

Oil seeds extruding: oil seeds extruder.

Oil seeds cooking: vertical stack cooker.

The Goal of the pretreatment section

1.Improve the quality of the oil and the cake.

2.Increase rate of productivity and reduce residual oil.

3.Increase the capabilities of the equipment.

4.Lessens wear and lengthens the life of the equipment.

5.Ensure safety.

Process details:

1. Dehulling process

Cleaned oil seeds are crushed into 1/4-1/6 pieces in the toothed roll decorticator (two pair). Then oilseeds are squeezed strongly by the relative rotation of the two fluted rollers with different linear velocity. Moreover, the alveolus can split and cut the hulls of oilseeds. Thus the dehulling effect will be achieved.

2. Kernel and hull adjustment

The separated oil seeds kernel are conveyed into the kernel and hull adjustment screen through the conveyer scraper, because the higher hull content in the kernel is, the lower protein content in the finished oil seed meal is. Due to the need of oil seed meal with different protein content in the market, the process is mainly to adjust the hull content in oil seeds kernel and process oil seed meal with different protein content.

3. Flaking

The main purpose of flaking is to destroy cell wall within oil seed kernel so that oil within oil seed kernel can be extracted out. After the process of flaking, the thickness of material will be reduced and its surface area will be increased, which are in favor of moisture penetration and heat transfer towards the inside of particle in the cooking process.

4. Cooking

After wetting, heating, steaming, frying and other processing, the raw embryos come up complicated physical chemistry change in its interior and become mature embryos. Thus creating a better condition to extract the oil, the heat treatment process is called cooking.

5. Pressing process

Embryos after cooking are called cooked flakes, crude oil containing slags from presser is pressed into oil settling tank through oil scraper blade, after the slag is removed, the crude oil is sent to oil filter tank, and then it is sent to horizontal screw centrifuge for purification. Pre-pressed cake from oil presser is conveyed into extraction plant by cake collecting scraper and cake scraper, and then enters into the following process.

1.Warm hulling process reduces energy consumption.

2.Double cracking and hulling process improves the hulling ratio and reduce oil residue in the hull.

3.High volume hull bin makes production flexible.

4.Makes it possible to produce meals of various protein content (includes meal milling).

5.Adopts the complete explosion puffing process which makes subsequent oil seed processing easier..

6.Automated controls.
