  • Can a mechanical oil expeller press be used for small scale oil extraction?
  • A mechanical oil expeller press was designed, constructed & further analyzed with simulation software (ANSYS) in this research work. This expeller can be useful for small scale oil extraction. ASME shaft design code was used in designing the screw shaft of the press. Locally available material (mild steel) was used in manufacturing of the expeller.
  • What is the oil extraction ratio of oil palm screw press?
  • ... Plate 1: Side View of the Oil Palm Screw Press (Adetola et al., 2012) Results of performance test showed that the highest oil extraction ratio (OER) of 17.90% and oil extraction efficiency (OEE) of 79.56% were obtained at the sterilization time of 60 min, digestion time of 10 min and screw speed of 10 rpm (Adetola et al., 2012).
  • How does an oil extraction press work?
  • A screw rotates inside the barrel of the press which creates pressure for the extraction of oil. Raw material is feeded through hopper & compressed inside the barrel for oil extraction and the cake is discharged through a choke mechanism outside. The pressure on screw was determined & applied in the created meshed design in Ansys.
  • Is a screw press better than a hydraulic press?
  • This operation requires high friction co-efficient and it generates a high amount of heat (Khan et al., 2016). When compared with a hydraulic press a screw press is more advantageous in that it has slightly higher oil extraction efficiency and allows for continuous oil extraction. ... ...
  • How does a screw press work?
  • ... In a screw press the seeds are continuously fed; and the screw grinds, crushes and presses out the oil. This operation requires high friction co-efficient and it generates a high amount of heat (Khan et al., 2016).
  • What is the ariation of extracted oil?
  • ariation of Extracted oil with respect to time 94.398%~97.3% for Material Discharge Efficiency (MDE), 85.22 gm/min~98.52 gm/min for Machine Capacity (MCP). From the stress analysis the perfect clearance between the screw & barrel can be determined of the machine.
