Zambia: Farmer boosts income by processing oil from sunflower
Mrs Kamuwikeni can sell a 25-kg bag of sunflower for 150 Zambia Kwacha ($6.60 US). Or she can process that bag into 10 litres of cooking oil and sell it for 430 Kwacha ($19 US). It’s seven o’clock in the morning and Naomi Kamuwikeni is quickly walking to the oil expeller at Gondar market. She is carrying sunflowers to process into oil.
The Chipata District Farmers Association (CDFA) says there is need for the expansion of the sunflower cooking oil project. Association Coordinator Vigil Malambo said the expansion of the project would lead to a reduction of cooking oil prices in the country. The high prices of cooking oil entail that there is low supply and high […]
Analysis of the Sunflower Value Chain in Zambia’s Eastern Province by
agricultural sector. The sunflower value chain has been identified as one such key based on the income generating potential for poorer farmers, especially women. The purpose of this study is to describe the sunflower oil chain from the input supply to retail level, and to
Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed. Prepress solvent extraction relies on exerting medium pressure on
Local sunflower farmer selling 2.5 Ltrs cooking oil at under K100
Local sunflower farmer selling 2.5 Ltrs cooking oil at under K100. The exorbitant retail prices for cooking oil have raised concerns after the commodity recorded over 80% price increase between 2020 and 2021. So many reasons have been proffered to justify this price jump but the Zambian Business Times – ZBT can reveal that local production
Zambia’s Sunflower production increased by a staggering 47% in the 2019/2020 farming season compared to the 2018/2019 farming season. Despite this aggressive increase, the local production still did not meet the national demand. According to information made available to the Zambian Business Times – ZBT by the Zambia’s statistics agency
From Seed to Oil: Unveiling the Sunflower Oil Extraction Process
The process of extracting sunflower oil involves various steps, such as: cleaning. dehulling. cooking. pressing. refining. The extraction method used depends on the desired quality and yield of the oil: Mechanical pressing is a popular method that involves squeezing the seeds using a machine to extract the oil.
Sunflower oil production has the following manufacturing processes: cleaning of the seeds, grinding of the seeds, pressing and extraction of crude oil from these seeds and then further refining the oil obtained before packaging. A volatile hydrocarbon like hexane is used as a solvent to extract the oil. Cleaning.
- Which extraction method is best for sunflower seeds?
- Therefore, prepress solvent extraction, with the highest oil recovery yield, is the process method utilized today for the majority of the sunflower seed that is crushed globally.
- How is sunflower oil extracted?
- A volatile hydrocarbon like hexane is used as a solvent to extract the oil. CLEANING THE SEEDS: The harvested sunflower oil seeds are passed over magnets to subtraction any metal traces, and other impurities are getting rid of by cleaning sieve and destoners. Then the outer covering (hulls) of the seeds are removed to get pure seeds. DE-HULLING:
- How is sunflower crushed for oil recovery?
- Sunflower is crushed for oil recovery via one of two process methods, hard pressing or prepress solvent extraction. Hard pressing relies upon exerting high pressure on the prepared seed to separate oil from the solids fraction, historically recovering about 25% oil from the seed.
- What are the kinetics and mechanism of sunflower seed oil extraction?
- The kinetics and mechanism of the extraction process investigated. It is shown that the process of extracting sunflower seed oil is complicated and include as intra-diffusion and outer-diffusion oil transfer is similar to extraction of target components from other seeds of plant material (amaranth, rapeseed, etc.).
