What is oil processing & how does it work?
The primary goal of oilseed processing is to extract as much oil as possible from the seed while consuming as little energy as possible. The result: two end products, oil and the leftover solids traditionally called meal. The two most common methods for separating the oil from the oilseed are chemical extraction and mechanical extraction.
Who invented linseed oil extraction machines?
Alfred W. French Sr. founded French in 1900 to produce state-of-the-art equipment for the extraction of linseed oil from flax. Mr. French soon adapted his equipment to other oilseeds as well. Today, French stands as a leading supplier and innovator of oil extraction machines and mechanical oilseed screw presses.
