In the production process of oil mill plant, the selection of solvent extraction equipment is very important to improve production efficiency and product quality. According to different production requirements and process conditions, the following aspects need to be comprehensively considered when selecting suitable solvent extraction equipment:

1. Equipment type and process matching

Choose the appropriate type of extractor based on the type and characteristics of the raw materials being processed. For example, different oils (such as soybeans, peanuts, rapeseed, etc.) have different requirements for solvent extraction process, some of which are suitable for spray leaching, while others are more suitable for soaking process. Knowing the characteristics of raw materials and process requirements can ensure the high matching between equipment and production process, thus improving solvent extraction efficiency.

2. Equipment material

Solvent will be used in the solvent extraction process, so the material of the equipment should have good corrosion resistance. Usually, stainless steel is more reliable, which can not only prolong the service life of equipment, but also avoid pollution caused by material problems in the production process and ensure the safety of products.

3. The degree of equipment automation

Modern oil mill plants pay more and more attention to the level of automation. The highly automated solvent extraction equipment can realize precise control, reduce manual  intervention and improve production efficiency. At the same time, the automation system can also monitor the production data in real time, which is convenient for finding and solving problems, thus reducing the production risk.

4. Equipment processing capacity

It is particularly important to select the equipment with suitable processing capacity according to the production scale of the oil mill plant. If the processing capacity is too small, it will lead to low production efficiency; However, excessive processing power may cause waste of resources. Therefore, when purchasing equipment, it is necessary to choose the equipment that matches the output according to the actual demand.

5. Energy consumption of equipment

Energy saving and emission reduction is the trend of modern industrial development. On the premise of ensuring production efficiency, solvent extraction equipment with low energy consumption and high heat utilization rate should be given priority, which can not only reduce production costs, but also reduce the impact on the environment.

To sum up, when selecting solvent extraction equipment, the oil mill plant needs to comprehensively consider factors such as equipment type, material, degree of automation, processing capacity and energy consumption. Only by purchasing equipment suitable for our own needs can we achieve efficient and energy-saving production while ensuring product quality.
