Rice bran oil is popular with consumers because of its rich nutritional value. However, many people do not know how rice bran oil is produced and which rice bran oil production equipment is needed. Next, the engineers of Henan Zhongxing will introduce in detail the production process of rice bran oil and the rice bran oil production equipment used.

Rice bran oil is produced from rice bran. Rice bran is a small part of rice and a by-product of rice mills. During the rice milling process, 5-8 kg of rice bran can be obtained for every 100 kg of brown rice. Therefore, if you want to produce rice bran oil, it is a better way to obtain raw materials from rice mills.

It should be noted that rice bran is a kind of oil with low oil content, with an oil content of about 10-23%. Therefore, in rice bran oil production plants, the leaching process is usually used to produce rice bran oil, and the daily processing capacity of rice bran is at least 20 tons. Before starting rice bran oil production, it is necessary to collect enough raw material-rice bran. Then consider which rice bran oil production equipment is needed.

The following are the rice bran oil production equipment used in the rice bran oil production process:

1. Rice bran pretreatment equipment

The purpose of the rice bran pretreatment equipment is to adjust the internal structure of the rice bran to a state suitable for leaching to achieve a better leaching effect. Rice bran pretreatment equipment includes bran and rice separation sieve, brewing pot, puffing machine and plate dryer.

(1) Bran separation sieve: remove the brown rice and other impurities from the rice bran.

(2) Modulation pot: adjust the moisture and temperature of rice bran.

(3) Extruder: Destroy the cell tissue structure of rice bran, leaving more voids inside to improve the efficiency of leaching.

(4) Plate dryer: Dry the rice bran to keep it for a long time to avoid rancidity.

2. Rice bran oil extraction equipment

Rice bran oil extraction equipment has four systems: rice bran oil extraction system, wet meal desolventization system, mixed oil treatment system and solvent recovery system.

The advantage of the leaching process to produce rice bran oil is that the residual oil rate in the rice bran meal can be lower than 1%, which improves the profitability of customers. Although the cost of the leaching equipment is higher than that of the squeezing equipment, the leaching equipment is fully automated, and the solvent can also be recycled and reused. The quality of the rice bran oil produced is better, so the production cost is lower than that of the squeezing plant. Therefore, the leaching method is a good method to produce rice bran oil.

3. Rice bran oil refining equipment

Rice bran oil refining equipment can remove impurities in the rice bran oil, so that customers can obtain high-quality refined rice bran oil. According to the continuity of the refining process, rice bran oil refining equipment can be divided into rice bran oil intermittent refining equipment, rice bran oil semi-continuous refining equipment, and rice bran oil full continuous refining equipment.

Henan Zhongxing can design rice bran oil refining equipment with different refining capacity:

The refining process of rice bran oil usually includes five processes: degumming, deacidification, decolorization, deodorization and dewaxing. After refining, the various impurities in the rice bran oil are removed, but the nutrients are still retained, and the refined rice bran oil can reach the national level.

From rice bran pretreatment to rice bran oil refining is a complete rice bran oil production line. If you want to produce rice bran oil and sell it to other rice bran oil refineries, you do not need to purchase rice bran oil refining equipment. Or, you already have a rice bran oil processing plant and intend to further process the rice bran oil into refined rice bran oil. You are also welcome to contact Henan Zhongxing.
