Huatai Sesame Oil Processing with Solvent Extraction Technology

Sesame oil, renowned for its rich aroma and high nutritional value, is a staple in many cuisines worldwide. Huatai Oil & Grain Machinery Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer in the edible oil processing industry, offers advanced solutions for sesame oil production, ensuring high efficiency and quality. While most oil mills prefer traditional methods like small mill pressing and mechanical pressing to retain the flavor and nutrition of sesame oil, solvent extraction technology is gaining traction for its ability to maximize oil yield and resource utilization.

 The Need for Solvent Extraction in Sesame Oil Production

Despite the popularity of traditional methods, sesame oil production through pressing often leaves a significant amount of residual oil in the sesame cake. This not only affects the quality of the cake but also represents a loss of valuable resources for oil mills. To address this, Huatai has developed advanced solvent extraction equipment designed to extract the remaining oils from sesame cakes, thereby increasing overall yield and efficiency.

The Solvent Extraction Process

Huatai's solvent extraction process is a sophisticated method that involves several key steps to ensure high-quality sesame oil production:

1.Solvent Contact: The sesame cake, after initial pressing, is treated with a solvent that dissolves the remaining oils, creating a mixture known as miscella.
2. Evaporation and Desolventization: The miscella is then processed to evaporate the solvent, leaving behind crude sesame oil.
3.Solvent Recovery: The solvent is recovered through condensation and can be reused, ensuring minimal waste and environmental impact.

Refining Process for Solvent-Extracted Sesame Oil

Solvent-extracted sesame oil requires further refining to remove impurities, solvent residues, and other substances that may affect the oil's quality and safety. Huatai's refining process includes:

1. Degumming: Removing gums and other colloidal impurities.
2. Neutralization: Reducing free fatty acids through acid-base reactions.
3. Bleaching: Removing pigments to enhance the oil's clarity and color.
4. Deodorization: Eliminating off-flavors to improve the oil's aroma and taste.
5. Winterization: Removing waxes to ensure the oil remains clear at low temperatures.

Advantages of Huatai's Solvent Extraction Technology
