DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF PALM OIL EXTRACTOR FOR LOCAL
squeezed by the action of the revolving worm to extract the oil. 4. Worm: it is a helical thread (screw) that is welded to the main shaft for effective squeezing and pressing of the material inside the barrel to extract the oil out of the press. 5. Main frame: the main frame is that pal1 of the expeller that provides support
This is a large scale palm kernel oil processing project set up in Nigeria. The production capacity is 120 tons per day. It is a complete plant including Seed Cleaner, GOYUM 27 – Screw Oil Press, Material Handling Equipment, Screening Tank, Oil Filter Press Machines and Control Panel. Below are a few glimpses of the PKO Plant.
Case study of recurrent failure of worm screws in
However, the increasing number of researchers in vegetable oil extraction, the availability and use of imported presses in Nigeria, the steel development efforts of the Nigerian Government,
Palm oil and palm kernel oils are produced in Nigeria from three production systems: natural/semi natural groves, smallholders, and small/medium sized estates and large estates. The groves are characterized by varied planting population from between 10–40 palms per hectare and 120–200 palms per hectare ( Omoti, 2009 ).
Development of a Screw Press for Palm Oil Extraction, IJSER
The highest oil extraction ratio (OER) of 17.90% and oil extraction efficiency (OEE) of 79.56% were obtained at the sterilization time of 60 min, digestion time of 10 min and screw speed of 10 rpm. The production cost of the press is $650 and it is powered by a three- phase 5hp electric motor.
The crude oil obtained was 1.22kg is further fractionated to separate oil from non-oil. The efficiency of the design was estimated as 75.31% and the ratio of the edible palm oil to the crude palm
Development of a Screw Press for Palm Oil Extraction
The highest oil extraction ratio (OER) of 17.90% and oil extraction efficiency (OEE) of 79.56% were obtained at the sterilization time of 60 min, digestion time of 10 min and screw speed of 10 rpm.
The digested mash is then fed into a press for extraction of crude oil under pressure which is applied either hydraulically or through a worm-screw. The crude oil at this stage consists of a mixture of oil, water and some fine solid material. This mixture is passed to a continuous separating system, from which the oil-rich layer is fed to a
Development and Performance Evaluation of a Motorized
Large percentage of palm kernel oil in Nigeria market is processed from the traditional method which is not only unhygienic but is equally labourious and time consuming. This research work is focused on the design and construction of a palm kernel oil extraction machine. The machine was designed and fabricated using locally available materials.
Therefore, a research was undertaken to design and develop a manually operated palm oil extraction machine at the department of Farm Power and Machinery, Bangladesh Agricultural University. It is a press type machine. A screw leads a piston manually in a perforated cylinder to press the mesocarp (pulp of palm fruit) to extract oil.
