Complete soybean oil mill plant is usually designed with seeds pretreatment section, oil processing section, oil refining section and oil filling section. According to oil extraction methods, soybean oil production can be divided into mechanical oil pressing and solvent oil extraction.
Why is soybean extruding important?
The most important function of soybean extruding is to destroy cell structure for easy oil extraction, blunt all kinds of enzymes, improve the oil yield, increase oil output and reduce solvent loss.
What equipment is used to soften soybeans?
Commonly used crushing equipment are rod-toothed crushers, hammer crushers and disc shellers. Softening is to improve the elasticity of soybeans by adjusting the moisture and temperature of soybeans, so that it has the best conditions for flaking, reducing the powder and sticky roll phenomenon and ensuring the quality of flakes.
What is soybean extruding?
Soybean extruding is the process of using extrusion and puffing equipment to convert crushed, flaked or whole oilseeds into porous puffed pellets. Extrusion is a high temperature, short processing process.
