  • What is a Rice Bran Solvent Extraction Plant?
  • A Rice Bran Solvent Extraction Plant is a facility that processes rice bran using solvent extraction. We are an eminent manufacturer and exporter of such plants, with our manufacturing facilities in Ludhiana, Punjab, India. Rice bran is a byproduct of the rice milling process, making up around 8% to 10% of the rice.
  • How much rice bran oil is available?
  • Production of rice bran oil is currently estimated at about 2 lakhs tonnes and hardly 10-15 per cent of it is of edible grade, although the potential availability is reckoned at about 8 lakhs tonnes.
  • Why is there a gap between rice bran oil production and availability?
  • The wide gap between the actual production and the potential availability of rice bran oil is primarily due to the fact that at present around 70 per cent of the paddy produced in the country is processed through huller mills while only 30 percent is processed by modern sheller mills.
  • How is rice bran oil made?
  • The creation of rice bran oil involves the pressing of the hull or bran of the rice grain. By pressing on the hull, small amounts of oil can be extracted and collected. The oil released from the rice bran contains a hefty amount of Vitamin E, gamma oryzanol and the essential fatty acids that lend a great deal of taste to the oil.
  • What are the quality characteristics of rice bran oil?
  • The quality characteristics of properly refined rice bran oil include a maximum free fatty acid levels (as oleic acid) of 0.1%, a maximum peroxide value of 1.0 meq/kg, 0.05% moisture, an iodine value of 99–108, saponification value of 180-195, and a Lovibond color value of 3.5R.
