Introduction To Sesame Oil Extraction Technology
The average seed composition is 35 – 50% oil and 19 – 25% protein. Yields can be as high as 2 tonnes per ha, average yields are 350 kg per ha because it is mostly cultivated in arid regions with poor soils. Under optimum growth conditions, some varieties take only 3-4 months to reach maturity.
The sesame oil extraction plant can be divided into three main parts which are as follows
- Sesame Oil Expeller
- Sesame Oil Filter Press
- Steam Boiler
Sesame Oil Expeller
Sesame seeds are directly fed in the feeding hopper of long cooking kettle for cooking purpose. Cooking of sesame seeds is necessary for highest recovery and long life of sesame oil. Long cooking kettle is provided for the proper cooking of the sesame seeds. The cooking kettle has given a special shape for maximum heating surface and the better cooking.
The cooked sesame seeds will be automatically dropped in the expeller and the expeller extracts (crushes) the cooked sesame seeds with the highest extraction pressure and produces the oil and by product (cake). The extraction chamber of expeller is specially designed for the highest recovery of oils as well the complete design of expeller is heavy duty for the best performance.
Sesame Oil Filter Press
The filter press filters the extracted sesame oil by using the micro filter cloths to make it edible. Filtered sesame oil will be a very cleaned, transparent, fresh, pure and natural in taste without any chemicals and hence there is a big demand of the same sesame oil at everywhere. The filtration chamber of the filter press is specially designed with membranes plates for the best performance.
