  • What is gas-assisted mechanical expression of oilseeds?
  • Gas-assisted mechanical expression of oilseeds. In Enhancing extraction processes in the food industry (pp. 341–360). London, New York: CRC Press. In the GAME process, CO 2 is dissolved in the oil contained in the seeds before pressing. After equilibration the oil/CO 2 mixture is expressed from the seeds.
  • What is industrial pressing of oilseeds?
  • Industrial pressing of oilseeds is realized using continuous screw presses. The presses are fed with crude or pre-treated seeds. Types of pre-treatments (thermal pre-treatment, size reduction, mechanical sieving, etc.) differ for various seed species (Carr 1997). Each type of seed pre-treatment provides its own advantages.
  • Do different types of oilseeds affect oil pressing performance & yield?
  • A review by Savoire et al. highlights that testing different varieties of specific oilseeds shows that the variety has a higher impact on the resulting oil pressing performance and yield than can be explained merely by the raw material composition, such as the oil content.
  • What is the difference between conventional oil extraction and mechanical pressing?
  • The traditional methods of oil extraction are exhaustive and have low efficacy, while conventional method of mechanical pressing is simple and involves low cost but considered as an inefficient method because of low oil recovery when compared with chemical extraction methods.
  • How does seed production affect oil extraction process?
  • The increase in the quantity of seed being slightly lower than the increase in oil production, it demonstrates an improvement of oil extraction processes. Generally, the oil extraction is based on two main steps: pressing (solid–liquid expression) and solvent extraction.
  • Are screw presses still used in oilseeds milling?
  • In oilseeds milling industry, these presses have gradually been replaced by screw presses. The first screw press was invented by Anderson in 1902 and was steadily improved since. Generally, the screw press contains a helical screw rotating in a barrel.
