Canola Oil Manufacturing Plant Setup Guide

Offer customized Canola Oil Business Plan, from oil extraction to refining and processing.

Prospect to Start Your Own Canola Oil Business

Rapeseed is now the second largest oilseed crop after soybean, and the third largest vegetable oil after soybean oil and palm oil, and it is therefore an important contributor to the annual supply of vegetable oils required to meet an increasing demand.

Main producers of canola in the world are European Union, Canada, China, India, and Australia. There are more and more investors who want to enter canola oil production industry.

Canola Oil Production Machines

For processing canola oil, we need canola oil seed, suction vibrating screen, magnetic separator, demineralizer, flaking machine, steam cooking machine, filtering machine, extractor, evapo-separated machine, steam drying machine, stripping tower, etc. (Read more about canola oil extraction process >>)

Cleaning Equipment: The main cleaning equipment for setting up canola oil extraction plant includes vibrating screen, gravity destoner, and magnetic separator. The cleaning process can remove the clay, stone, metal and other impurities in the rapeseeds and reduce the abrasion of canola processing machine, so that to ensure safe operation, reduce oil loss, increase oil yield and improve the quality of oil and oil cake.

Oilseeds Roaster / Cooker: Adopt rotary roaster or flat bottom roaster for rapeseeds cooking to achieve the desired temperature and moisture. The flat bottom roaster adopts conduction oil as the heat source and stirs the materials with the mixing blade. The rotary roaster has the rapeseeds turned within the rotating drum for uniform heating.

Canola Oil Press: With the aid of feeder, the roasted rapeseeds enter the rapeseed oil press machine. The worm rotates along with the main shaft to push the materials forward. With the reducing of the volume of the pressing chamber, the pressure within the chamber increases gradually. Rapeseed oil press machine is equipped with the automatic barrel heating system. Meanwhile, the friction force produces heat. The cells of the materials are destroyed and the oil flows out. When the oil flows onto the filtering barrel, by the vacuum pump, the oil is pumped into the barrel and the residues are left on the filter cloth, thus the pure oil is obtained.

Canola Oil Refinery Machine

Refinery machine is needed for establishing cooking oil factory.

• Degumming: Degumming is to remove the phospholipids in the crude rapeseed oil. The crude oil is preheated and phosphoric acid is added.
• Alkali Refining: Alkali refining is to remove the free fatty acids in the crude oil. Alkali acid is added to reacts with free fatty acid. When the soapstocks precipitate obviously, stop stirring and settle for several hours. Then remove the soapstocks. Preheat the clean oil and add hot saline-alkaline water. Settle and discharge the wastewater. Wash with hot water for several times.
• Decolorization: Decolorization is to remove the pigments in the canola oil. Pump the oil into the decolorization tank and dehydrate under vacuum. Add bleaching clay and stir for 20 minutes. Then the oil is cooled and filtered.
• Deodorization: Deodorization is to remove the odor substances in the oil. The decolorized oil is pumped into the deodorization tank for vacuum deodorization by steam distillation. The oil is then cooled and filtered.
