The main goal of any oilseed processing plant is to extract oil. But what makes this oil so valuable for so many different uses? Technically speaking, it’s all about triacylglycerol, more commonly known as triglyceride, which is basically a technical term for fat. The value of any type of oil, whether for edible or industrial…
In an industrial oilseed processing plant, where heavy-duty extraction equipment is constantly enduring wear and tear from crushing tough material, optimal performance depends on regular service and equipment maintenance. Just as you routinely take your car to the shop for a check-up every 10,000 miles, it’s even more important to schedule preventative maintenance to examine…
Biofuels and other alternative sources of energy are attracting interest and investments to solve the problems of increased energy demands, depleted reserves of non-renewable fossil fuels, and related environmental concerns. As a clean, renewable answer to the energy dilemma, biofuel production offers a sustainable solution to reduce dependence on fossil fuels—while reducing emissions. However, despite…

The primary objective of any oilseed processing operation is to squeeze as much oil from the seed as possible by separating the liquid fat from the solid meal. Achieving this requires a complex series of steps and processes along the way, which makes oilseed processing quality control an ongoing priority at every step — not…
When you factor in all the dedicated equipment, specialized expertise, skilled labor, and regulatory certifications required to run a solvent extraction plant, oilseed processing can be quite expensive. That’s why many companies outsource the intricacies of extraction by leveraging toll processing services instead. By partnering with a toll processing facility like ENAT INTERNATIONAL, your company…
As the demand for organic food continues to rise, driven by increasing consumer concerns about the health and environmental impacts of conventional crops, farmers and feed mills face obstacles to capitalize on this growing trend. Since soybean meal has become the world’s primary protein source in animal feed formulations, organic soybean meal plays a critical…
Even if you’re staying on top of regular equipment maintenance, oil expeller presses and dry extruders will eventually require rebuilding to replace worn and damaged components. Well-executed machine rebuilds help maximize your machine investments by keeping your processing equipment operating at peak performance. However, expeller press machine rebuilds can add enormous burdens for processors if…
Just as the Dox™ Extruder prepares oilseed material for more efficient mechanical extraction in an expeller press, the Solvex™ Expander prepares oilseed for more efficient solvent extraction. Through its unique high pressure cooking process, this machine packs flaked soybean into a dense, porous structure that allows solvent to flow more easily through the material, extracting…
