Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
Introduction. Corn germ is a substantial byproduct of the wet milling and alcohol industry of corn. Corn germ (dry) contains 35–56 % oil, with linoleic acid (C18:2) being the predominant fatty acid (49–61.9 %) and the highest level of tocopherol and phytosterol amongst all vegetable oils, which is a cost-effective resource for healthy nutritious oil.
Designed for difficult-to-process materials like corn germ, palm kernel, and grapeseed, the Duo’s unique dual-pressing action can reduce residual oils to 5-6% in a single pass. Models of this machine from the 1930s are still operating today, earning the Duo a reputation as the most durable, long-lasting press in the oilseed extraction industry.
Corn Germ Oil Extraction Plant, Complete Turnkey Project
In Dry milling Corn / Maize Flour is the main product. Oil content of Corn / Maize germ produced by Wet Milling is as high as 50% and that by Dry Milling is about 25%. We undertake turnkey project solutions for the complete Corn / Maize-Germ Oil Extraction Plant. Major Corn producing countries are USA, China, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Ukraine
Maize germ pressing by corn oil press machine. Corn Germ Oil Press Machines. Step 1: Before starting the corn germ oil pressing plant, a comprehensive inspection must be carried out first. Loosen the lock nut, turn the screw counterclockwise to let the conical surface of the screw press against the conical surface of the oil cake outlet.
Corn Germ Oil Extraction Plant
Usually the corn germ is around 8% in the total corn grain, and the corn germ’s oil content is approx. 50%. There are two common production methods for corn germ oil: pressing method, suitable for small and medium-sized corn oil producers, and solvent extraction method, suitable for large-scale corn oil producers.
5.1. Corn Germ Oil. Corn germ oil is a nutritious and healthy edible oil. It has a transparent golden yellow color and a fragrant fragrance. It is called “liquid gold” by Western countries. Corn germ oil contains 80–85% of unsaturated fatty acids, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and α-linolenic acid. The content of linoleic acid is as high as
Front‐end corn germ separation: Process variations
Corn oil, being the most valuable corn component, presents itself as an attractive candidate for front-end and tail-end separation of germs. Although the corn oil does not take part in starch fermentation into ethanol, the implication of the front-end degermination in dry-grind corn process on downstream product recovery is an essential
In general, it is verified that corn oil processing by-product has a dry matter content of 89.0%, crude protein around 10.6%, the crude fiber of 4.6%, ether extract close to 1.34%, in addition to calcium, phosphorus, several amino acids such as methionine, lysine, and tryptophan [ 22, 23, 24 ].
Oilseed Extraction Equipment | Cold Oil Press Machine
These oil extraction machines gather vegetable oil from oil-bearing seeds and nuts for food and industrial uses, including biodiesel and other fuels. Our durable, heavy-duty oilseed equipment has an average life span of 60-70 years, operating with maximum productivity and lower processing cost per ton. Download our literature on screw presses
The extraction of corn germ oil was evaluated using pressurized propane as solvent in semi-batch process as an alternative approach to organic solvent extraction. The effect of temperature (20, 40, 60 °C), pressure (20, 60, 100 bar), particle size and confinement time were studied. Moreover, the extraction kinetics for the pressurized solvent were determined. Temperature and pressure had no
