About

Sharpenn Technologies designs and manufactures solvent extraction plants for extracting oil from oilseeds and oil cakes using hexane-based technology. Solvent extraction achieves oil recovery rates significantly higher than mechanical pressing, making it preferred for large-scale operations. Our plants cover seed preparation to meal desolventization, with miscella filtration and distillation for solvent recovery. Manufactured at our Thane facility for processing soybean, rice bran, sunflower, cottonseed, rapeseed, and other oilseeds.

Working Principal

Stage 1

Seed Preparation: Cleaning, cracking, conditioning, and flaking of oilseeds.

Stage 1

Seed Preparation: Cleaning, cracking, conditioning, and flaking of oilseeds.

Stage 2

Extraction: Prepared material contacted with hexane in an extractor. Solvent dissolves oil, producing oil-rich miscella and oil-depleted meal.

Stage 2

Extraction: Prepared material contacted with hexane in an extractor. Solvent dissolves oil, producing oil-rich miscella and oil-depleted meal.

Stage 3

Miscella Processing: Miscella filtered and distilled to evaporate and recover hexane. Recovered oil sent to refinery.
