Cost of start a small oil extraction plant

As people pay more attention to the quality and health value of edible oil, the market demand for extraction oil as an efficient method of extracting vegetable oil is growing. For investors, opening a small oil extraction plant has become an investment project with broad prospects. This article will analyze in detail the cost factors of the investment required to open a small oil extraction plant, and explore how to reasonably plan the budget. 

Factory site selection and construction cost 

The first thing to consider when opening an extraction oil plant is the site selection issue. The ideal site selection should take into account factors such as the convenience of raw material supply, transportation conditions, and environmental protection requirements. The cost of factory construction includes land acquisition or rental fees, factory building construction or rental fees, and factory infrastructure construction. This part of the cost varies depending on the region, scale and construction standards, but usually accounts for a large part of the total investment.

Equipment procurement and installation costs

The core equipment investment includes oil presses, extraction tanks, degumming, deacidification, decolorization, deodorization and other refining equipment, as well as supporting pipelines, pumps, tanks, etc. Depending on the processing capacity and technical requirements, equipment investment shows greater flexibility. The equipment configuration of a small oil extraction plant is relatively simple, but production efficiency and oil quality still need to be guaranteed, so equipment costs also account for an important proportion.

Raw material costs

Raw material costs mainly include the expenditure on the purchase of oil crops such as rapeseed, soybeans, and peanuts. The price of raw materials is greatly affected by market supply and demand. Investors need to pay attention to the dynamics of the raw material market and arrange procurement plans reasonably to reduce costs.

Operating costs

Operating costs involve employee wages, water and electricity costs, maintenance costs, logistics costs, etc. For small oil extraction plants, efficient operation and management is the key to controlling costs. Reasonable staffing, energy-saving and emission reduction measures, and regular equipment maintenance can effectively reduce operating costs.

Administrative and compliance costs

Compliance costs include administrative expenses related to obtaining production licenses, environmental assessments, fire safety, etc. In addition, daily financial management, tax processing, etc. will also incur certain costs.
In short, the investment cost of a small oil extraction plant is closely related to many aspects. Investors need to fully consider the above costs when planning their budgets.
