  • How is oil extracted from soybeans?
  • Due to the moderate oil content (18 ¨C 23%mass) , it is mandatorily recovered from soybeans by solvent extraction . Currently, industries adopt a continuous-countercurrent-multistage extractor for oil extraction from vegetable oilseeds.
  • How is soybean oil extracted in a continuous and countercurrent process?
  • Extraction of soybean oil in a continuous and countercurrent process. Multistage extraction was experimentally reproduced from batch single-stage assays. The process efficiency was mainly limited by the oil solubility in the solvent. The minimum solvent mass flow and the number of ideal stages were calculated.
  • How is soybean processed?
  • Modern soybean processing starts with solvent extraction to obtain crude oil and defatted meal. Most defatted meal is used for animal feed and only a small portion is further processed into different types of soy protein products for human consumption (see Chapter 8). Crude oil contains variable amounts of nontriglyceride materials.
  • What is modern soybean oil?
  • Modern soy oil is a stable high quality triglyceride ingredient used widely in commercial processed foods. It is without other lipid contaminants and available at a reasonable cost. Modern soybean processing starts with solvent extraction to obtain crude oil and defatted meal.
  • Which country produces the most soybean oil?
  • Brazil and the U.S.A. lead the soybean production, but Brazil is the main exporter, being China the main importer . Soybean oil is the 2nd most consumed oil (28%) , being widely employed in the food industry and in homemade foods , being also one of the lipidic material mostly used for biodiesel production worldwide .
  • How is crude oil produced in a soybean crushing plant?
  • The crude oil is usually water degummed in the crushing plant which generates an additional flow, consisting of gums (or lecithin). Table 1 presents the main quality parameters (optimal contents) of the major products from soybean crushing.
