This state-of-the-art facility is part of a modern, large-scale corn deep processing base, adjacent to a 1,000-ton daily corn processing workshop. Designed and constructed by Huatai, the plant integrates advanced extraction and refining technologies to transform corn germ into premium, health-conscious edible oil. The installation phase is now concluding, with final preparations—including pipeline insulation and epoxy flooring—underway for official commissioning.
Oil Extraction Process
The extraction section employs a meticulously engineered workflow:
- Cleaning & Drying: Corn germ is thoroughly cleaned and dried to optimize processing efficiency.
- Steaming & Conditioning: Germ enters a steaming wok where temperature and moisture are precisely controlled to enhance oil yield.
- Parallel Pressing: Ten synchronized screw oil presses operate in parallel to maximize extraction efficiency.
- Preliminary Purification: Crude oil is treated via a residue scraper and further refined through a leaf filtration system before transfer to clear oil tanks.
Refining System
The refining section ensures oil purity and quality through a multi-stage process:
- Degumming & Alkali Refining: Removes phospholipids and free fatty acids.
- Washing & Drying: Eliminates residual soaps and moisture.
- Decolorization: Adsorbs pigments and impurities using advanced bleaching technology.
- Deodorization: Steam stripping removes volatile compounds for neutral flavor and extended shelf life.
Core equipment includes refining tanks, drying and decolorization units, vibrating filters, deodorizing towers, and crystallization tanks. The entire system is powered by a natural gas thermal oil furnace, offering an eco-friendly and energy-efficient heating solution.
Seven-Step Quality Assurance Protocol
Huatai’s process adheres to a rigorous seven-step protocol to guarantee superior oil quality:
1.Germ Selection → 2. Pressing → 3. Crude Oil Filtration → 4. Degumming & Purification → 5. Deacidification & Balancing → 6. Dewaxing & Anti-Condensation → 7. Decolorization & Deodorization
Each stage complies with Huatai’s stringent operational and safety standards, ensuring consistent output of high-clarity, nutrient-rich corn oil.
Technological and Environmental Highlights
- Energy Efficiency: The natural gas thermal oil system reduces carbon emissions while maintaining operational economy.
- Automation & Control: Advanced PLC systems enable real-time monitoring and adjustment of process parameters.
- Hygienic Design: Food-grade stainless steel construction and seamless interiors meet global food safety norms.
- Scalability: The plant layout allows for future capacity expansion with minimal disruption.
