Energy-efficient mustard processing technology: from raw material to high-quality protein and oil

Our technological scheme is designed to maximize the benefits from every ton of mustard seeds. We offer a comprehensive solution that ensures stable output quality of oil and premium cake quality for animal feed.

Technological production cycle:

Thermal preparation: An automatic system heats the raw material to 10–15°C in cold seasons. This stabilizes the technological process and prevents oil loss due to temperature fluctuations.

Preliminary cold pressing: Primary oil extraction in a screw press at up to 60°C. This approach preserves the product’s natural vitamin content and low acid number.

Extrusion (or toasting) and final pressing: Fat-rich cake (oil content 25–30%) is heated to 110–130°C.

This ensures:

  • Efficient extraction of remaining oil
  • Preparation of protein for maximum digestibility by animals (increased bypass protein)

 

Purification and storage: Oil passes through a purification system (separator or filter press) to remove impurities, then is pumped into storage tanks. Cake is cooled to a safe temperature and transported to floor storage.

Output result: High-protein cake with protein content of 34–36% and low residual oil content—only 8–10%.

Economic benefits and advantages of mustard processing

Having your own processing line means moving from selling raw materials to selling high value-added products:

High product yield: From 1 ton of mustard seeds, you get 330–380 kg of natural vegetable oil (depending on seed oil content)

Protein concentration: The protein level in the output material significantly increases in the finished cake (compared to the original raw material), making it a valuable component of compound feed

Safety guarantee: The extrusion/toasting process ensures microbiological purity of the cake and absence of foreign impurities

Requirements for mustard seeds

To ensure maximum line productivity and oil yield, mustard seeds must meet the following criteria:

Optimal moisture: 7–8% (critical for quality pressing)

Cleanliness: mandatory removal of light and heavy impurities

Impurity content: no more than 2-3%

Why choose our equipment?

We don’t just sell machines—we implement ready-made business models:

Specialization: We professionally design lines specifically for oilseed crops, considering the specifics of working with small-seeded mustard

Global support: We provide service, commissioning, and spare parts supply through official representatives in 23 countries

Reliability: Our extruders and presses are designed for round-the-clock operation in demanding conditions

LAYOUT SOLUTIONS

Our equipment meets your space

ENVISION & PREDICT

Making a layout ahead of time helps you picture the project. It also gives you a clear idea of what is needed for construction, where equipment will go, how much energy will be used, and how materials will move through the facility.

 

It helps answer these questions:

  • if your premises, territory, access roads and power substation are suitable for the implementation of the project;
  • what is the project budget.

LAYOUT SOLUTION - WHAT IS IT?

Includes:

  • our specialist’s visit to your site;
  • measuring the premises;
  • coordinating your vision, capabilities and resources;
  • making a draft of the technological line – for the conditions of your site;
  • preparing a specification of the necessary equipment – for your conditions.

Feed Soy Concentrates Based on Extruded Grain

One of the key limiting factors in improving compound feed quality is the deficit of protein raw materials, a replenishable source of which is the grain of leguminous crops. Legumes (lupines, vetches, field beans, field peas, soybeans, chickpeas) contain 25% to 40% protein, 37–45% starch, 1.5–4.5% fat, vitamins, and micronutrients. The proteins of leguminous crops are characterized by good solubility: water- and salt-soluble fractions account for 70% to 90% of the protein. The amino acid profile includes all essential amino acids, with methionine + cystine being the limiting amino acid. Seeds of vetch and field beans have lysine as their second limiting amino acid.

Extrusion Preparation of Grain Raw Materials in Pet Food Production

The market for pet food (dogs and cats) is one of the most dynamic and profitable segments of the feed-milling industry. While the profitability of traditional compound feed for farm animals typically ranges from 5% to 15%, the production of dry pet food achieves a profitability of 50% to 250%.
