peanut oil mill

peanut oil production line

Peanuts are nuts with a high oil content of 40% to 50%, making them a good material for oil press machines. The oil obtained from peanuts is very healthy and suitable for human consumption. Therefore, all countries have a great demand for peanut oil mill plants.

We are a manufacturer and exporter of complete groundnut oil mill plants. We can supply completely custom business plans for peanut oil processing from small scale to large scale, from oil extraction, oil refining to oil filling.

The advantages of peanut oil mill

High oil yield: Precision screw design technology optimizes pitch and groove size, maximizes compression, and ensures high oil yield and minimum residue of peanut cake.

one

Wide application: It is suitable for processing peanuts and other oilseeds like sesame, sunflower soybean, sesame, cottonseed, mustard, and more.

two

User-Friendly Design: It is simple to operate. You can easily use and maintain the equipment according to the instructions and maintenance requirements.                                

three

Cost-effective: This machinery provides cost-effective solutions, and competitive prices and enables a rapid shift from small-scale to large-scale peanut oil mill plants.

The process of peanut oil mill

  • Step 1 Cleaning: it involves the removal of foreign objects such as leaves, nodes, and weed seeds that can contaminate the oil.
  • Step 2 Shelling: it entails removing the outer shell of the peanut to increase the yield of oil, improve processing efficiency, and reduce equipment wear and tear.
  • Step 3 Crushing: it is to remove peanut skins, after crushing, the red skins can be sucked out by a wind separator, and the separated peanut red skin can be used as raw material in the medicine and chemical industry.
  • Step 4 Cooking: it is a crucial step in the peanut oil-making process. It helps to break the cell walls and open the cells containing the oil. This step also decreases the thickness of the oil, making it easier to flow out.
  • Step 5 Pressing: it is the screw press applied high pressure and friction, extracting oil from the peanuts. The kernel cake is simultaneously separated during this process. The oil and cake are then collected at the oil outlet and pressed cake exit.
  • Step 6 Refining: The pressed peanut oil still contains impurities, which need to be removed. Use a filter to remove small and large particles and even water from the oil.

How profitable is peanut oil business

Capacity (Ton/Day) 1Ton, 2Ton, 5Ton, 10Ton, 15Ton, 20Ton, 30Ton
Application Process almost all kinds of crude oil for edible purposes: vegetable oil, palm oil, sunflower oil, rice bran oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, mustard oil, peanut oil, etc.
Machine Cost $7,000-$115,000 (the exact price is based on capacity and other requirements of each equipment)

Low cost of peanuts: the cost of growing peanuts is relatively low compared to other crops, making it attractive to small-scale farmers.

Low peanut oil-making machine price: the small peanut oil processing machine only requires a baking machine, an oil press, and a filter, and the cost is relatively low. The specific configuration of other medium and large peanut oil processing machines needs a vibrating sieve, magnetic separator, peanut shelling machine, peanut crushing machine, peanut cooking machine, screw oil press machine, and frame filter press. 5 ton/day oil production plant, for example, about $7000 ~ $8000 is needed for purchasing the peanut oil mill machine.

Site location: before we build a peanut oil processing plant, we need to buy land and determine its location. The location should be easy to supply raw materials and transport, which can save transportation costs. 5 ton/ day oil mill plant is needed for 80㎡ factories. The cost is about $735 per month.

Various by-products: In addition to oil extraction, other by-products such as peanut cake can be used in animal feed to improve profitability.

It is this kind of business with small costs, products, and by-products that can be sold, which is the business favored by small investors, and the business that can easily earn money by investing with confidence.

Factors affecting the fragrance of peanut oil

  • The quality of peanut: The quality of peanut raw material directly affects the taste of oil. Good peanut oil requires good peanut material. Therefore, the peanuts used to make the fragrant oil should be fresh and full of seeds.
  • The ratio of raw peanuts and cooked peanuts: The ratio of raw peanuts and cooked peanuts is important. Generally, it should be controlled at 3:1. If the proportion of cooked peanuts is too small, the smell of peanut oil will be weak. If the ratio is too large, the oil yield will be reduced. The crude oil will become cloudy, increasing the difficulty of subsequent treatment.
  • Pretreatment technology: pretreatment also has important effects on peanut fragrance, including cooking moisture pressure and temperature.
  • Cooking moisture and pressure: The control of moisture and temperature is the key factor affecting the yield and smell of the oil when the peanut oil press is pressing the oil. In the pressure range required by the equipment, the technology should be used to adjust the water content of the oil in the steamer to 12% ~ 13%, and the indirect water vapor pressure should be increased as far as possible within the range that the equipment can withstand, generally controlled at 0.6MPa.
  • Cooking temperature: The production of oil fragrance is directly related to the cooking process of seeds. If the temperature is too low, the fragrance is weak. If the temperature is too high, the peanuts will burn easily. Generally speaking, the cooking temperature should be controlled at 180℃ ~ 200℃. In addition, to prevent gelatinization and spontaneous combustion, the seeds should be cooled immediately after cooking.
