  • What are oilseed presses used for?
  • Oilseed presses separate oilseeds such as sunflowers, canola, and soybeans into oil and oilseed meal. Pumpkin or grape seeds and brazil nuts are examples of materials that are less known and can be pressed for their oil in these machines. Oil from the press is raw oil, and is used either as a food product or as an industrial product.
  • What is soybean oil content compared to other oilseeds?
  • Soybeans, soybean cakes (SBC) and soybean meals (SBM) average composition values have been reported by several authors (Table 1). Overall, soybean oil content is low compared to other oilseeds (15.5–24.7% DW), while the protein content is high (32–43.6% DW).
  • What oil is used in an oilseed press?
  • Soybean oil (usually called "vegetable oil"), corn oil, sunflower oil, canola oil, peanut oil, olive oil, and safflower oil are common. This large range of oils points to the flexibility necessary in an oilseed press if it is to be used to press oil from a wide variety of seeds and nuts.
  • What is oilseed press cake?
  • Oilseed press cake is a major co-product of the extraction of oil from oilseeds. The two traditional methods to extract oil from oilseeds are either using a screw press or using solvents.
  • Are oilseed press cakes a good alternative?
  • Oilseed press cakes and meals represent a promising alternative, due to high levels of production globally, and because they are naturally rich in high quality protein. This review will provide information on the suitability of obtaining protein from the main oilseeds (soya, rapeseed/canola and sunflower).
  • What are the different types of small oilseed presses?
  • Available small oilseed presses are of two major types; screw presses (expeller press) (Figure 2) or reducing screw/cage presses. Many are made overseas while at least one is now available from a United States manufacturer.
