HOW IS SUNFLOWER OIL EXTRACTED?, Grainvest
Sunflower. Sunflower oil production has the following manufacturing processes: cleaning of the seeds, grinding of the seeds, pressing and extraction of crude oil from these seeds and then further refining the oil obtained before packaging. A volatile hydrocarbon like hexane is used as a solvent to extract the oil. Cleaning. De-hulling. Grinding.
Sunflower oil is widely consumed and is the preferred oil in most of Europe, Mexico, and several South American countries due to easy accessibility and health benefits. The oil extract from sunflower serves as excellent phenolic antioxidants, which account for about 1%–4% of the total mass chlorogenic acid.
Cold-pressed sunflower oil: a hot new product | Farmer's Weekly
Vergezocht Plant Oils is the first factory in Africa to produce cold-pressed, high-oleic sunflower oil. Sabrina Dean visited the plant in Bloemfontein in the Free State to find out more about Vergezocht’s business plan, which is built around using a niche sunflower cultivar to produce a high-demand product in a world moving towards healthier lifestyles.

Sunflower seed is primarily used for the manufacturing of sunflower oil and oilcake. In South Africa sunflower is well adapted in both hot and dry climate.
Sunflower farming an opportunity for ..., Farmers Review Africa
The sunflower seed delivered to CEOCO had an oil content of between 46% and 48%. Based on an average sunflower price of R5 887/ton, producers received price premiums of 12% (R706) to 15% (R883) per ton. On top of the improved price, producers who took part in the pilot reported average yields of 2t/ha – significantly higher than the current
the most importance of sunflower production is the extraction of oil from the seed. south africa has produced about 230 000 tons of sunflower oil for the past ten years, which represents about 30 % of the seed produced. the industry does not import any significant sunflower seed but import sunflower crude oil.
How to Farm Sunflowers, South Africa
When making sunflower oil the sunflower seeds are cleaned and the hulls are removed. The cleaned seeds (‘meat’) are crushed and further ground up before the meat is heated. The meat is sent to the expeller and crushed into sunflower meal and crude oil. Solvents are used to extract the last oil from the oilseed cake.

The future of sunflower production in South Africa
FERDI MEYER and GERHARD VAN DER BURGH, both from the Bureau for Food and Agricultural Policy. Over the past two decades, the South African sunflower industry has been characterised by volatile production levels with virtually no real growth while domestic demand for oilcake and vegetable oil has increased by approximately 40%.
Sunflower seeds are also an important food source in South Africa – the seeds are pressed and crushed for their oil, which is primarily used as cooking oil in many local households. The extraction process of oil from seed results in sunflower meal, or sunflower oilcake, which is a valuable by-product in the feed industry.
