brief summary of the common oilseed

For customers who choose the oil press industry, it is extremely important to have good quality oil press equipment and high oil production efficiency. Usually we say that the oil yield refers to the oil yield of the raw material itself, and it is very important to know the oil yield of various raw materials to operate the oil press business.

The following is a brief summary of the common oilseed crops for oil traders.

Peanuts

Originally from South America, it is an important high-oil shelled soft oilseed. Peanuts contain 65%-75% of kernel, 40%-51% of peanut kernel and 25%-31% of protein.

Soybeans

Soybean is a high quality, high protein oilseed containing 15.5%-22.7% oil and 30%-45% protein. Soybean has become the most important vegetable oilseed in the world, with the main producing countries being the United States, Brazil, Argentina, China, India, etc. It is one of the main sources of edible oil and vegetable protein (edible and feed) in the world. Soybean oil contains more than 60% unsaturated fatty acids, including 51.7% linoleic acid and 2%-10% linolenic acid, so soybean oil has a fairly high nutritional value, but is less stable.

Sesame

Sesame seeds are one of the oldest edible oil in the world, with an oil content of 45%-63% and a protein content of 19%-31%. Sesame oil is one of the few vegetable oil that can be consumed without excessive refinement. It contains 43% oleic acid and 43% linoleic acid, making it high in nutritional value. Sesame oil is chemically stable due to the natural antioxidant sesamol.

Tea Seeds

Tea seeds are grown in India, Vietnam, Indonesia and other countries. Tea seeds are shelled and contain 50%-72% kernel. The whole seeds contain 30%-40% oil and the kernel contains 40%-60% oil and 8%-9% protein. Tea seed oil is a non-drying oil, containing a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, which is a good medicinal and nutritional edible oil.

Cotton seeds

Cotton seed is the seed of cotton, cotton seed whole seed contains 15%-25% oil, cotton kernel contains 28%-39% oil, containing 30%-40% protein.

Rice bran

It is the by-product of rice processing, each processing 100kg rice can out 5-8kg rice bran, rice bran contains 14%-24% oil. Rice bran oil as cereal nutritional oil, has the function of reducing serum cholesterol content. Because the rice bran contains the very strong activity of the lipolytic enzyme, it is easy to make the rice bran deteriorate and affect the quality of the oil, so the oil made of rice bran sometimes needs to be pretreated to reduce the activity of the lipolytic enzyme.

In addition, rice bran contains 3.5%-7% rice germ, and rice germ itself has high oil content, about 25%-37%, which can be used as food use alone or make oil
