  • Why is non-solvent oil extraction important for plant oil industry?
  • Oil recovery and solvent usage are primary concerns for plant oil industry which significantly affect the oil production costs. Non-solvent oil extraction, such as aqueous extraction, is becoming more attractive for industrial applications because it is greener, safer for operation and more eco-friendly.
  • 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.
  • What are the eco-friendly methods for edible oil extraction?
  • New advanced eco-friendly techniques namely, enzyme-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction can easily overcome the shortcomings of the conventional methods and holds the potential to meet the ever-increasing demand of edible oils.
  • Which oil production process has the highest unit production cost?
  • Industrial mechanical pressing process has the highest unit production cost (3.60 $/kg oil) followed by solvent extraction (3.06 $/kg oil) and on-farm oil production (1.36 $/kg oil). The lower oil recovery efficiency of mechanical pressing (70¨C80%) compared to solvent extraction (>95%) results in higher unit production costs.
