  • What is peanut oil processing technology?
  • This chapter covers peanut oil processing technology. It starts by explaining the pretreatment technology and peanut pressing technology of high temperature and cold pressing peanut oil. It then discusses the peanut oil extraction technology, which includes leaching and separation technology.
  • How to Dry peanuts before pressing?
  • Before pressing, it is necessary to dry the peanuts repeatedly with a hot air drier to control the water content within the range of 5¨C6%, and then bring down the temperature of the oil quickly with cool air to a temperature below 40°C.
  • What is cold pressed peanut oil?
  • Cold pressed peanut oil is composed mostly of unsaturated fatty acids, predominantly oleic and linoleic acids. Moreover, the oil is also rich in bioactive components such as tocopherols, phenolic acids, and phytosterols. Cold pressed peanut meal, also known as defatted peanut meal or pressed peanut meal, is a by-product of peanut oil extraction.
  • How is cold pressed peanut oil extracted?
  • Commercial cold pressed extraction of peanut oil is carried out using a twin-screw press at temperatures below 60°C ( Wang, Liu, Hu, et al., 2016; Zheng, Ren, Su, Yang, & Zhao, 2013 ). Lastly, a frame filter is used to press and filter three times under 30°C to obtain the cold pressed peanut oil ( Wang, Liu, Hu, et al., 2016 ).
