  • What products are made from sunflower seeds?
  • Sunflowers are used to make oil, meal and confectionary products. Oil and meal are processed from the same sunflower seed varieties. The seed variety used foe confectionary products has a lower percentage of oil.
  • Is Sunflower an annual crop?
  • Sunflower is an annual crop, which is mainly cultivated for oil production from its seeds. Besides oil from seeds, its seed hull is also used for animal feed and burning. Sunflower domestic cultivation was started around 4000 years ago in Native America, but its cultivation for oil production was first started in Russia.
  • How to refine sunflower oil?
  • Refining of sunflower oil Crude oil is extracted from sunflower by mechanically pressing the sunflower seeds that are partially dehulled, and then hexane extraction and water degumming are done. Sunflower oil should be of high quality and high stability to be accepted in the vegetable oil market .
  • What is the chemical refining process of sunflower oil?
  • Chemical refining process starts with crude oil and is treated for degumming and neutralization, which is followed by bleaching the oil and last it goes through winterizing and deodorizing stages . The detailed process of sunflower oil from its crude oil has been described in Fig. 1.
  • How is sunflower oil made?
  • Sunflower oils are cold-pressed. This method, which entails minimal processing, produces a light, flavourful oil suitable for some cooking needs. Sunflower oil manufacture involves cleaning the seeds, grinding them, pressing and extracting the crude oil from them, and further refining.
  • What are the different types of sunflowers?
  • Sunflower is of two types, namely the oil seed and non-oil seed sunflowers. Sunflower seed contributes almost 80% for its oil contents; therefore, oil seed sunflower mainly contributes to oil production. These oil seed sunflowers are distinguished by having solid black hulls attached to its seed .
