1. Power Requirement is low say 12 kw only.
2. Can Run by diesel generators also, where grid power is not available OR expensive.
Plant is easy to install, run and handy to operate. We have few lady customers in some African countries.
3. Evergreen income generation business as oil is basic necessity of human.
4. One of the Best small scale industry for own business.
5. Can work on custom milling basis for villagers, farmers, seeds traders, customers having oilseeds.
6. Payback period on investment is about 90 ~ 120 days
7. Through the extensive use of Mini Oil Mills establishments, the monopolized handful companies can be diminished and plenty small scale oil industries can be generated. Decentralization of oil Industry is worth doing job as does wealth distribution. If 100 small units will start then one big plant will shut down & income of one big plant is distributed into 100 small units who are in acute need of livelihood.
8. Mini oil mill plant is a blessing for the village level and cottage scale industries and can be setup in a small towns, villages or locality or cities of any agriculture based countries.
Juice is extracted completely in single crushing. No second crushing required. Very compact, can be moved from one place to another easily. Very efficient, sturdy and noiseless. Very simple and easy to operate, even a child can easily operate it. Runs on single phase, so can be used anywhere. (Where there is electric connection.) No maintenance required except regular cleaning. Very easy to clean. Power consumption is very economical. Crushes 120 Kg sugarcane in 1 Hour giving 360+ Glasses of juice each of 200ml. No open parts as in traditional sugarcane crushers. So contamination from flies and dust is avoided. All contact parts made of stainless steel 304. Machine is completely safe to operate.
For Best Extraction, It Is Essential To Crush Oilseeds Twice.
First Crushing
During first crushing more steam heating is required. The residual oil content in the pre-pressed cake is about 12%-15%. After first crushing cake of about 10 mm thickness is sent to the second expeller machine where the second crushing takes place. You get about 80% oil during first crushing.
Second Crushing
Second crushing is done with more pressure by pressing cake discharge cone. Cake is thinner say 3 mm thickness. Residue in the cake is around 7% only. Now you get 20% oil. So full extraction is done after second crushing.
It is important for viewers to understand meaning of automation.
When process starts for seeds processing till feeding into the multiple expellers human labor was involved as human-being is best elevator and conveyer. If you have only have 1 decorticator and 1 expeller (MINI OIL MILL PLANT) two persons can handle this but when capacity of oil mill plant increase by more no. of expellers, it was remarkable that labors started exhausted due to monotonous work. So to give them relief conveyers and elevators were introduced for material handling and shifting from 1 equipment to the next equipment and so on. Thus, automatic plants came into action and started becoming popular.
Capacity 5 tonnes per day i.e. 4 batches of 1250 kg. each
1. All the main vessels i.e. two neutralizers, one bleacher and one deodourizer are properly arranged on the first floor of the steel structure. So all these vessels are hanging on the steel strucutre. Just below the two neutralizers, two soap pans are resting on the ground floor in which soap stock is collected. There is a steam pipe arrangement in the soap pans also.
2. Steel structure has size of 14ft. x 14ft. (i.e. 4.25mtr. x 4.25mtr). First floor is 9ft. above the ground level. There are 8 coloumns of double chanel which supports the entire steel structure. It has proper staircase and railing on all the sides of steel structure at the first floor and also on staircase. Two filter presses are also accomodated on the first floor of the steel structure.
3. Two oil tanks i.e. raw oil tank and bleached oil tank are accomodated under the strucutre on the ground floor. Then cooler, thermic fluid boiler, two steam generators, vacuum pump, water pumps, oil pumps and refined oil tank are arranged on the ground floor around the steel structure i.e. outside the square of 14ft. x 14ft. of the steel structure. So total space occupied is about 30ft. * 30ft. (9mtr. x 9mtr.).
4. 40ft. tower is erected just near the deodourizer and its complete structure is supported from the ground floor and also it is attached with the refinery structure. Berometric condenser is arranged at 40ft. height to create proper vacuum.
5. All types of piplines are interconnected as per the requirement of the refinery i.e. oil pipelines (yellow colour), vacuum pipelines (blue colour), steam pipelines (black colour), water pipelines (white colour), thermic fluid pipelines (red colour). At all appropriate places, proper valves are provided in the pipelines.
6. Neutralizer is provided with thermic fluid coil for heating the oil.
7. Bleacher is provided with double pipe coil. One is for thermic fluid and another is for cooling water.
8. Deodourizer is provided with double pipe coil i.e. in both the coils, thermic fluid is circulated. Steam is ejected from the stainless nozzles provided on the steam pipe cross supported at the bottom.
9. Cooler is provided with double pipe coil. Both for cooling water.
10. In every vessel temperature guage is provided. Vacuum guage is provided on deodourizer, bleacher and cooler.
11. Neutralizer is open on the top having conical bottom.
12. Bleacher has dished ends on both the sides. Similarly deodourizer has dished ends on both the sides. Cooler has also dished ends on both the sides.
13. Specification of Refinery with fractionation Process
14. There will be chilling plant for fractionation process which will include shell and tube chiller, compressor, motor, pump, condenser, control panel box etc.
15. Crystallizing unit which is similar to neutralizer complete with chilling coil.
16. Filter press for separation of palm olein and palm sterene.
