An Overview of Groundnut Oil Extraction Technologies
Traditionally, groundnut oil extraction involves shelling the groundnut pods, roasting the shelled groundnut seeds, de-skinning/winnowing the roasted groundnut seeds, milling the cleaned groundnut seeds and kneading the paste produced. Among the different method of oil extraction (traditional, mechanical, chemical and mechano-chemical methods
By tpz December 9, 2022. Groundnuts, also known as peanuts, are an important cash crop in Kenya. They belong to the legume family and are grown for their edible seeds that have a high protein content. Groundnuts can be used for oil or as a food ingredient. They are commonly roasted and eaten as a snack or used to make peanut butter.
An Overview of Groundnut Oil Extraction Technologies
Aliyu (2008) conducted a study to evaluate the traditional groundnut oil extraction process. Results revealed that apart from the drudgery involved, a lot of time is wasted in the activity. A similar study by Ibrahim (2010) in a different location arrived at same findings and recommended improved equipment for small scale groundnut oil extraction.
Step 1: Cleaning. After harvesting groundnut are received at processing facilities. Batches of harvested peanuts will contain whole peanuts in the shell, some shelled peanuts, and foreign objects (e.g., leaves, nodes, weed seed, etc.). The peanuts are then cleaned using cleaning machine so that oil is not contaminated with foreign materials.
Design And Fabrication Of A Groundnut Oil Expelling Machine
The main objective is to design and fabricate of an improved, durable groundnut oil expeller, using local sourced materials. Other specific objectives are: To develop a machine that can extract oil from groundnut, within a minimum time frame. To design, develop and test expeller that is affordable to small scale oil millers. 2.
The. machine components are: the electric motor, expellant unit, d rains collector, belt, driving and driven pulleys, and the hopper. The expelling unit consists of a screw expellant shaft with
An Overview of Groundnut Oil Extraction Technologies
Groundnut oil extraction involves removing oil content of the groundnut seed. Study conducted in Northern Nigeria revealed that 75% of the rural women engaged in groundnut
Groundnuts are mainly grown in western Kenya by small scale farmers both for food and sale. These areas have a tropical climate suitable for farming. There are two main varieties of peanuts in Kenya namely: The runner type and. The bunch type (Red Valencia). Bunch varieties are small, tastier and a highly marketable variety.

Extraction of Oil from Groundnut Seed. When it comes to the extraction of oil from groundnut seed, there are two common oil extraction process: cold press and hot press. In order to improve the oil yield, hot press is usually adopted. Cold Pressing Process: Peanut kernel → cleaning → crushing → oil pressing → filtering → cold pressed
Groundnut Kernels obtained after the Decortication process can be used as a raw material for Groundnut Oil Extraction Plant. Groundnut Kernels contain 40 – 45 % oil content. After a double stage pressing, about 5 – 7 % residual oil is left in the Groundnut meal which is an excellent source of Animal Feed.
