SOYBEAN PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY

 

USE FOR:
  • production of high protein feed component
  • production of vegetable oil

 

The technology performs peeling, grinding and heat treatment of soybeans, pressure treatment, reduction of trypsin inhibitor content (urease level), steam extraction and oil squeezing out of full fat soybeans.

 

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF SOYBEAN PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY

 

FINAL PRODUCT:
  • SOYBEAN OIL
  • SOYBEAN PRESSED CAKE (oil content 7 … 8%)
    (urease: 0.05 … 0.2 pH))

 

INPUT MATERIAL:
  • soybeans, peeled soybeans – min 12 t/day

 

RAW MATERIAL CLEANING:

Soybeans are cleaned on separators in a mill mode:

  • light and heavy impurities are removed
  • if necessary divided into fractions
  • the content of impurities is not more than 3%
MOISTURE OF RAW MATERIALS:

To optimize the extrusion and pressing processes, soybeans are dried immediately before processing.

  • Optimum moisture content of soybeans (for maximum oil yield): 8 … 9%.

 

 

WORKING CONDITIONS:
  • power line (workshop): min 160 kW
  • production area: min 200 m²
  • storage area of raw materials: min 250 m²
  • floor storage area for oil cake: min 300 m²

 

SPACE REQUIREMENTS:
  • Floor height difference: 5 mm / m
  • Indoor temperature: min 5 ° C

 

 

SOY PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY: Required Elements

1) STORAGE OF RAW MATERIAL:
  • Warehouse: from 250 m²

 

2) RAW MATERIAL PREPARATION:
  • Raw material cleaning: storage standards
  • Dosing of raw materials: up to 8 … 10%

 

3) REMOVING THE SOY SHELL:
  • Fiber removal: up to 5% by weight of raw materials
  • Increase in protein specific gravity in oil cake: by 2 … 3%

 

4) EXTRUSION:
  • Raw material heating: 120 … 150 °C
  • Decrease in urease activity: up to 0.05 … 0.2 pH
  • Moisture decrease: by 1 … 3%

 

5) SOYBEAN OIL PRESSING OUT:

Oil cake production:

  • protein: 40 … 48%
  • oil content: up to 8%Oil production:
  • solids residue content: up to 3%

 

6) COOLING THE OIL CAKE DOWN:
  • Decrease in temperature: after the final product had been discharged from the cooler, its temperature is 5 …10°C higher than the temperature in the shop

 

7) OIL CLEANING / FILTERING:
  • Impurity reduction: removal of up to 90% of impurities

 

8) STORAGE OF OIL CAKE:
  • Floor storage warehouse: from 300 m²

 

9) OIL STORAGE:
  • Storage capacity: from 70 m³

 

10) LAB:
  • Determination of fat and protein content, moisture, urease activity
