  • rapeseed soybean oil extraction plant in lagos
  • Is rapeseed defatting suitable for direct solvent extraction?
  • Due to its high oil content of up to 50 % in the seed, rapeseed defatting is not suitable for direct solvent extraction ( Unger, 2011 ). Conventionally, oil extraction from rapeseed is achieved by screw-pressing, either by expeller pressing (full-pressing) or by pre-pressing of the seeds, followed by solvent extraction.
  • Are rapeseed extracts biologically active?
  • To date, extracts with a high content of biologically active substances are obtained from rapeseed using modern extraction methods. Brassica napus L. seeds contain polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids, phytosterols, flavonoids, vitamins, glucosinolates and microelements.
  • How is oil extracted from rapeseed?
  • Conventionally, oil extraction from rapeseed is achieved by screw-pressing, either by expeller pressing (full-pressing) or by pre-pressing of the seeds, followed by solvent extraction. Oil contents in the resulting press cakes are in the range of 5 %¨C10 % (full-press) or 15 %¨C18 % (pre-press) ( Kemper, 2005 ).
  • What are the byproducts of rapeseed oil?
  • So, rapeseed oil is subjected to industrial treatments such as extraction, degumming, bleaching, deodorization, and subsequently produces large quantities of byproducts like hull and fibers, rapeseed meal, rapeseed cake, deodorizer distillate, acid oil, soapstock, etc.
