Cottonseed oil is classified as a vegetable oil. It is extracted from the cotton plant, or more accurately from the seeds, and is generally used for cooking. Seed oils are preferred for diets that require lowered intakes of saturated fats. This makes cottonseed a kind of good oil for preparing healthier foods.
Cottonseed oil contains pressing cottonseed oil, solvent extraction cottonseed oil, genetically modified organism cottonseed oil, crude cottonseed oil, and finished product of cottonseed oil. Its color is deeper red than other oils, can be used as cooking oil after refining, as well as contains a large sum of fatty acid which is essential to human body, better to mix animal fats to use.
The whole Cottonseed oil solvent extraction workshop is selected on the base of safety, reliable, energy-saving, less fault, easy maintenance, and long using life, adopting world advanced cooking oil solvent extraction technology and cooking oil solvent extraction equipment to achieve the best extraction (leaching) process effect.Solvent extraction process of BV &CE Certification Cotton Seed Oil Extraction Mill include: extraction, desolventizer, Evaporative system, condenser. Oil extraction, can be regarded as solid-liquid extraction.It's use solvent has different solubility for different raw material to separate oil from the cakes. Features of Cotton oil solvent extraction (leaching) plant.

How to get cottonn seed oil?
There are 2 waysto get cotton seed oil ,One is press way,The other is solvent extraction way.Cotton seed oil press process mainly include a serious of steps,such as cleaing,husking,crushing ,softening,flaking cooking ,and pressing.Cotton seed oil solvent extraction also called extraction machine, it is a process of extracting out oil from oilseed using organic solvent.The basic process of cotton seed oil solvent extraction: Soaking embryo(puffing oilseed, prepress cake or embryo slice)into the selected solvent, makes edible oil dissolve in the solvent (miscella), then separate miscella and solid cake; Miscella evaporates and strip according to different boiling points, make solvent vaporize into steam, and seperate with oil, then get crude oil. Solvent steam can be recycling through condensation,cooling. The meal also contains some solvent, it will get dry meal after desolvent and drying, during this process, it will volatilize steam,also can be recyclable through condesation and cooling.
