Expanders
Appointment
Expanders are specialized equipment that is used for wet heat treatment of material (soybean petal, sunflower cake, rapeseed) obtained after mechanical extraction of oil in order to achieve all the indicators necessary for high-quality and effective extraction.
Expanders provide the indicators necessary for high-quality and effective extraction of vegetable oils. In the production of vegetable oil on an industrial scale, a combination of mechanical extraction technologies with subsequent solvent extraction is used. The connecting link between the two oil production sites are expanders.
Characteristic
- The expander is a horizontal device with a rotating screw designed for moisture-thermal processing of material (soybean petal, sunflower cake, rapeseed) obtained after mechanical extraction of oil on screw presses. The expander body is equipped with a steam jacket with nozzles for supplying steam under pressure.
- The complete set of all expanders of our production, except for the device itself, includes:
- european-made electric motor;
- oil station;
- feeder;
- granulating device;
- control panel and electric shield;
- frequency converter.
- When choosing an expander for cake, it is necessary to take into account the type of raw materials used and the performance of the equipment.
The principle of operation
At the exit from the expander, the cake takes the form of granules endowed with all the indicators necessary for high-quality and effective extraction:
- porosity – provides better percolation of sites during extraction;
- homogeneous structure – makes it easier to fill the extractor, while reducing the amount of fine fraction;
- the high permeability of the expanded cake increases the contact of the organic solvent with the oil material, which provides a significant reduction in steam consumption.
So, the cake is fed into the extractor, which is already fully prepared for high-quality and effective oil extraction.
Advantages
- increasing the concentration of places;
- increased productivity (extraction productivity increases by an average of 20-30%);
- expanded cake is more porous;
- extraction rate;
- reducing steam consumption;
- reducing solvent consumption.
