Opportunities and Challenges in Uganda’s Vegetable Oil Industry
over 2000-2013, the average annual growth rate in vegetable oil production was 5.2%. Production from 2014 to 2016 is projected to have grown at a rate of 5%. Data from FAO shows that over 2000-2013, the average annual growth rate in vegetable oil production was 5.2%. The oilseed sector has also grown alongside the vegetable oil
The current technologies and green solvents used for soybean and general vegetable oil extraction are presented. Besides, main kinetic and thermodynamic approaches are reviewed, and tools for screening solvents are presented. Issues regarding cost, recovery, and reuse of green solvent are assessed.
An energy-friendly alternative in the large-scale production
Soybean oil is widely used as cooking oil, whereas the soybean cake is a valuable ingredient for animal food. The extraction of soybean oil is an energy-intensive process, with additional significant impact on the environment via the wastewater and hexane emissions. The research investigated different ways to minimize the energy consumption.
Highlights Energy and exergy utilization and carbon dioxide emission during production of soybean, sunflower and olive oils are assessed. In all cases, agriculture is the most energy and exergy intensive process and emits most of the carbon dioxide. The cumulative degree of perfection for soybean, olive and sunflower oil is 0.92, 0.98 and 2.36, respectively. Decreasing diesel consumption
Optimization Methods for the Extraction of Vegetable Oils: A
The 225 W microwave power, 15 mL/g solid/liquid ratio, and 20 min extraction time were the optimum conditions necessary to obtain a yield of 87.4% ± 0.44%. The results showed that maximum yields for UAE were obtained in half the time required for microwave assisted extraction (MAE).
Executive summary. Uganda has set an ambitious agenda to develop its substantial energy and mineral resources, promote economic development, end energy poverty, and lead the country to a just energy transition. Uganda’s stated objective in Vision 2040 is to transform into “a modern and prosperous country”, ensuring a better future for its
Edible Oils, Uganda Investment Authority
Uganda has a large domestic market with demand for edible oils expanding rapidly (Uganda’s imports of edible oils increased more than five-fold to over $ 30 million in 2017). Member of EAC, which had recorded ever imports of edible oils in 2017, with 50% growth reaching nearly $1 billion. Uganda has a strong track in the production of
The annual revenues from oil production are expected to be US$1.5 billion to US$2 billion. The oil revenues have the potential to stimulate Uganda’s economic growth and real household incomes
