Traditional method of extracting castor oil
A study was carried o ut on the traditional method of processing castor oil. Nine major operations are. paste, mixing t he paste with water/boili ng to extrac t oil, sc ooping of oil and drying
Castor oil seed contains about 30%–50% oil (m/m).74,75 Castor oil can be extracted from castor beans by either mechanical pressing, solvent extraction, or a combination of pressing and extraction.74 After harvesting, the seeds are allowed to dry so that the seed hull will split open, releasing the seed inside.
Castor Oil Manufacturing Process, Oil Expeller
Step 4: Castor Seed Pressing. A screw oil press machine is used to crush the castor oil-seeds to facilitate removal of the oil. The first phase of this extraction is called pre-pressing. After pressing oil is collected and filtered and the filtered material is combined back with new, fresh seeds for repeat extraction.
A continuous screw press is used to extract the oil. The castor seed passes through the machine where the screw shaft is rotated in the parallel direction and crushing the seeds. The pressure of the expeller screws ruptures the oilseeds and oil flows through the slots provided. The oil extraction machine consists of different parts.
Extraction, Characterization and Modification of Castor Seed Oil
H. Janson. Engineering. 1974. 4. This paper carried out experimental study, through extraction and characterization of both crude and refined castor oil. Normal hexane was used as solvent for the extraction process. The oil produced was refined through degumming, neutralization and bleaching process using local adsorbent (activated clay).
Castor oil was extracted by mechanical cold pressing (< 45 0 C) of the seeds of wild castor plant (Ricinus communis L.) found in wet marginal lands of Katsina, Nigeria. Oil yield was 39.43%. The

Optimization of Process Parameters for Castor Oil Production
Abstract—Bean conditions, processing temperature and pressing time, solvent type and solvent-solid ratio were studied to optimize oil yield from castor beans. A maximum yield of 50.16% was obtained in this study. Moisture content of 3-3.6% was found compared to the range of 5-7% reported in literature.
The predicted optimum conditions for the production of castor oil biodiesel are; reaction time of 60 minutes at the temperature of 60°C, catalyst concentration of 3.5 g and a methanol/oil molar ratio of 5:1. The biodiesel yield was 99.76% and the result of the measured properties of biodiesel was compared with the international standards of
