  • soybean moisture content for oil extraction in lesotho
  • Which solvent is used in soybean oil production?
  • Solvent extraction and expelling are the main processes used in soybean oil production. Hexane is currently the leading solvent in extraction , . This solvent has a high solubility for oil extraction, availability, low price, low boiling point, and heat of vaporization .
  • How to extract soybean oil?
  • Soybean oil can be obtained by expelling or using an organic solvent. Although, the employment of solvent will always follow the expelling to increase lipid extraction yield .
  • How to detect soybean oil and moisture content?
  • Soxhlet extraction, oven drying, LF-NMR spectrum, and LF-NMR oil and moisture content software were used to detect soybean oil and moisture content. The comparison showed that the LF-NMR oil and moisture content software was faster and more accurate than the other methods.
  • What is the moisture content of soybean oil?
  • Usually in soy oil industry, soybeans with initial moisture contents of 11¨C15% w.b. are dried in the temperature range of 70¨C93°C to reduce the moisture content to 9¨C10% w.b. At this moisture level, reduced viscoelastic stress development produces thin flakes desirable for oil extraction (Singh et al. 2004 ).
