Three types of rapeseed oil making equipment are commonly used: rapeseed oil pressing equipment, rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment and rapeseed oil refining equipment. What equipment is needed for making of rapeseed oil and the differences in the rapeseed oil they produce? Let me briefly introduce you:
Rapeseed Oil Press Equipment
The rapeseed oil press equipment uses the action of external mechanical forces to press the pre-treated rapeseed, squeezing the fat out of it to obtain pressed rapeseed oil. The rapeseed oil obtained by rapeseed oil press equipment does not contain additives, and its nutrient content is relatively ideal, but the content of residual oil in the cake after pressing on the rapeseed oil press equipment is high, and a single use will lead to fat loss. Therefore, in the making of rapeseed oil, oil refineries often use pre-press solvent extraction to increase the yield of rapeseed oil, which requires the use of rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment.

The rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment uses the solvent in full contact with the oil to making oil, and the fat contained in the rapeseed oil is leached to produce blended oil. The boiling point of solvent and fat is different, and the solvent is evaporated to obtain leached rapeseed oil. The rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment can produce rapeseed oil with high solvent extraction efficiency, but the crude oil leached by the rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment contains a small amount of solvent residue. The leached crude oil must be refined before it can be eaten. Refined rapeseed oil can remove the solvent from the oil well and keep the oil safe. The leached meal is of good quality, can be used for livestock or animal feed and has a high product utilization rate.

Pressed oil and solvent extraction oil contain certain impurities. Some impurities are introduced during the manufacturing process, such as sediment, pomace powder, vegetable fibers and other impurities, while others are present in oils and fats such as phospholipids, free fatty acids, pigments, etc. Impurities that affect the quality of rapeseed oil. Therefore, whether it is pressing or solvent extraction the oil, it must be purified with rapeseed oil refining equipment to remove impurities from the oil. Rapeseed oil refining equipment purposefully removes impurities from rapeseed oil through processes such as degumming, deoxidation, dehydration, decolorization and fat deodorization to ensure the quality and food safety of rapeseed oil. Refined rapeseed oil is more suitable for the taste of the general public, and can also extend the shelf life of rapeseed oil. Refined rapeseed oil can only enter the market for sale after passing inspection.
Rapeseed oil refining equipment
Generally, rapeseed oil pressing equipment and rapeseed oil solvent extraction equipment mainly making oil from oil. This oil is called crude oil and needs to be processed. Rapeseed oil refining equipment is designed to clean the produced crude oil from impurities and harmful elements. Refined oil is the finished edible rapeseed oil that we usually see in supermarkets.
