Sunflower Seed Preparation and Oil Extraction
Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed. Prepress solvent extraction relies on exerting medium pressure on ...

Expeller pressed sunflower oil and solvent extraction methods are two common production processing for sunflower oil. Using the pressing method typically results in an oil residue rate of around 7%, whereas solvent extraction can reduce the oil residue rate to about 1%. It's worth noting that solvent extraction machine is costlier.

The extraction mixture consisted of approximately 10.0 ± 0.1 g of sunflower collets and 180 mL of ethanol (95%, bp 78 °C), corresponding to a collet-to-solvent ratio of 1:18 (g/mL). The agitation rate was kept constant in all experiments, being sufficient to maintain a well-mixed fluid and the particles in suspension.

- Which extraction method is best for sunflower seeds?
- Therefore, prepress solvent extraction, with the highest oil recovery yield, is the process method utilized today for the majority of the sunflower seed that is crushed globally.
- Does ethanol extract oil from sunflower collets?
- The ethanolic extraction of oil from sunflower collets was studied and compared with previous data where hexane was used as extraction solvent. First, the extractive power of ethanol was determined by Soxhlet.
- Does ethanol increase the solubility of sunflower seed oil?
- Cocero and Calvo (1996) successfully demonstrated that the solubility of sunflower oil is increases with increasing in ethanol percentage as a co-solvent and also suggested that, the extraction of some phospholipids are directly proportional to the added ethanol volume which explains the higher cumulative extraction yield of sunflower seed oil.
- How is sunflower crushed for oil recovery?
- Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed.
