  • How does a Moringa screw press oil expeller work?
  • Schematic view of the moringa screw press oil expeller Schematic exploded view of the moringa screw press oil expeller The seeds are introduced into the machine through the roasting drum where they are heated. Thereafter, the seeds flow down to the feed hopper through a sliding gate provided on the roasting drum.
  • Are there oil expellers for moringa seeds?
  • Several researchers have developed different oil expellers for different crops, but none has been reported for moringa seeds.
  • How does a Moringa machine work?
  • The machine is powered by a 2.0-hp three-phase electric motor. Moringa seeds were procured from the market, dehulled and thereafter, manually cleaned to remove foreign materials. A factorial experimental design (4?×?5) was used in the test at various moisture contents, heating temperatures, heating times and applied pressures.
  • Which equipment should be used to extract oil from moringa seeds?
  • Expellers represent one of the best choices for the extraction of oil from oilseeds. To design an efficient equipment for the expression of oil from moringa, the engineering properties of moringa seeds have been determined and reported by several researchers [ 3, 4, 6, 9, 16, 26 ].
  • Is expeller a viable option for moringa oil expression?
  • The expeller serves as a viable option for moringa oil expression since the use of solvent is only economic on large scale and not suitable for small-scale processing because of high capital and operating costs, risk of fire and explosions and complexity of the process.
  • Can a moringa oil expeller be used as animal feed?
  • The cake obtained from the expeller thereafter can be dried and used as animal feed, thereby making the expeller a more viable option for moringa oil expression. Adejumo BA, Alakowe AT, Obi DE (2013) Effect of heat treatment on the characteristics and oil yield of Moringa oleifera seeds.
