Sheanut Solvent Extraction Plant

The cracked and conditioned Shea Nut pieces fed into the screw press where almost 30%% of the Oil will be drained out leaving 15% to 20% Oil in the cake. This cake will be discharged at temperature of 90°C to 100°C.

Modern machinery and processes have enabled shea butter production at scales large enough to make the product accessible globally. This means that even though shea tree cultivation is limited by the decades-long process, shea nut processing, shea kernel processing, and shea butter production are no longer constrained by geography.

Shea Butter Extraction Plant

The cleaned Shea nut kernels are subjected to conditioning in a vertical stack cooking kettle. The kettle uses steam for indirectly heating the Shea nut kernel. The kettle is specially designed to achieve a temperature of minimum 110°C at the outlet with a retention time of minimum 60 minutes. The principal object of Seed Cooking / Conditioning

Shea Butter Oil Extraction Machine, Oil Press Group

Shea nut is the fruit of African shea tree. Like avocado, shea nut has delicious flesh. The fat contained in the kernel of shea nut is shea butter, which takes up about 40% ~ 55%. Each mature shea tree produces only 15 to 20 kilograms of shea per year, which can only survive on the African continent due to climatic and plantation reasons.

The shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa, Gaertn.) grows in West Africa, and the nuts are harvested primarily for their fat content. It is native to Africa and grown abundantly in this region which usually contains about 40-42% oil content. This kind of oil is of special quality and being called shea butter.

Shea Nut Processing, Kumar Metal Industries

The resulting oil–hexane mixture is later separated from the seed residue by filtration. The oil–hexane mixture is then heated to 68ºC to vaporise and recover the hexane to obtain the crude Shea Butter. The use of chemicals in the extraction process takes shea butter away from being a natural oil.

It also can be used to extract shea butter oil from the shea nut. The advantage of shea butter oil extraction technology by screw pressing method has large production capacity, high oil output, and continuous oil production. However, the color of oil and oil cake is deep and too many impurities in the oil, so, it requires oil refining process ...

  • How to process shea nut kernels?
  • For processing Shea nut kernels, we need a combination of mechanical pressing unit ( Oil Mill ) and solvent extraction plant (SEP). The following are steps involved in Shea Butter Extraction Plant : Shea nut kernels are separated and cleaned to remove impurities such as dust, metal, plant stalks.
  • What are the steps involved in shea butter extraction plant?
  • The following are steps involved in Shea Butter Extraction Plant : Shea nut kernels are separated and cleaned to remove impurities such as dust, metal, plant stalks. The cleaning process can reduce equipment friction, ensure safe operation, reduce butter loss, improve life of wear parts, increase yield and improve butter and meal quality.
  • How is shea butter extracted?
  • About 30–33% of shea butter is extracted from the shea nuts with the mechanical expeller although combination of the mechanical with chemical methods has achieved 98% extraction efficiencies. The chemical extraction processes
  • What is the mechanical press method of shea butter extraction?
  • The mechanical press method of shea butter extraction has been reported by FAO and CFC (2002) but one of the earliest research on the use of the mechanical press was by Marchand (1988). His research revealed that equipped with a jack that exerts 30 tonnes of force, a shea butter press could crush more than 3 kg of shea kernels within 20 minutes.
  • What are the 4 layers of a shea nut?
  • The fruit is composed of four layers - the epicarp, mesocarp, shell and the kernel. The epicarp together with the mesocarp is called the pulp; the shell and the kernel compose the nut. The kernel is the oil-bearing material that can be obtained by processing the shea nut fruit.
  • What is the best solvent for shea butter extraction?
  • In a study conducted by Kar et al. (1981), on the best solvent for shea butter extraction, petroleum ether, n–hexane, chloroform, benzene, and water were employed. Hexane extraction gave the highest amount of fat from the kernel.
