Groundnut Solvent Extraction Plant
Engineered to deliver maximum oil recovery from pre-pressed groundnut cake, trusted by clients across India and global markets for high-performance peanut and groundnut oil processing solutions.
Groundnut Solvent Extraction Plant
Our Groundnut Solvent Extraction Plant is designed to extract the maximum possible oil from pre-pressed groundnut cake. Groundnut kernels naturally contain a high oil percentage, typically between 46-52%, so they first go through a groundnut deshelling and solvent extraction plant workflow, where pods are cleaned, deshelled, and the kernels separated before mechanical pressing removes the bulk of the oil. The cake left behind still carries a meaningful 15-18% oil content, which is then directed into our continuous groundnut extraction plant for further processing. Using food-grade hexane, the plant dissolves and draws out this remaining oil through hexane extraction of groundnut oil, lowering residual oil levels in the final meal to below 1.0%.
At the heart of this Groundnut Oil Extraction Plant is a precisely regulated Desolventizer Toaster (DT), which recovers the solvent while conditioning the meal for safe use. The end result is a protein-rich, safe de-oiled groundnut meal plant output well suited for use in animal and poultry feed.
Whether you're looking for a Groundnut Oil Processing Plant, a groundnut oil expeller plant, or a complete Groundnut Oil Refinery Plant, Super Techno Engineers builds systems engineered to deliver consistent performance, backed by reliable groundnut solvent extraction plant India expertise developed through years of engineering experience.

How Our Groundnut Solvent Extraction Plant Works
Step-by-step breakdown of our highly efficient peanut oil solvent extraction process.
Pod Cleaning
Groundnut pods collected from farms are cleaned using rotary drums to remove mud, sand, and other impurities before processing begins.
Deshelling & Kernel Separation
Pods move through our groundnut deshelling and solvent extraction plant line, where shells are removed by impact and shearing action, and kernels are separated using an aspiration system.
Kernel Cleaning & De-stoning
The separated kernels are cleaned again using drum-type cleaners and de-stoners to remove fine sand and stones, followed by magnetic separation to remove iron particles.
Conditioning
Cleaned kernels are conditioned in a cooker, heated to 65-70°C with live steam, raising moisture to the ideal range for pressing.
Pre-Pressing
Conditioned kernels are fed into our groundnut pre-press solvent extraction plant line, where screw presses drain the bulk of the oil, leaving a pre-pressed cake with 15-18% residual oil.
Solvent Extraction
The pre-pressed groundnut kernel oil extraction plant cake is fed into our continuous moving-bed extractor, where food-grade hexane dissolves and draws out the remaining residual oil.
Miscella Distillation
The oil-solvent mixture undergoes multi-stage, low-temperature distillation to separate pure crude oil from the solvent while preserving oil quality.
Desolventizing & Toasting
Once extraction is complete, the meal is routed through our Desolventizer Toaster, where a precisely managed combination of heat and steam strips away residual hexane from the meal.
Meal Conditioning & Bagging
The de-oiled groundnut meal plant output, discharged at around 110°C, is cooled, sieved to remove lumps, and bagged as the final de-oiled groundnut meal product.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common technical questions our clients ask about the Groundnut Solvent Extraction Plant.
Q1. Can we process groundnut pods directly, or do they need to be deshelled first?
expand_more
Groundnut pods must first go through cleaning and deshelling to separate the kernel from the shell. Only the kernel, after pressing, moves forward into the solvent extraction stage.
Q2. What is the difference between pre-pressed and full-pressed groundnut cake?
expand_more
Pre-pressed cake typically retains 15-18% oil and is sent for solvent extraction. Full-pressed cake retains only 5-6% oil after two-stage mechanical pressing, with the balance recovered through solvent extraction.
Q3. Does the groundnut kernel need any preparation before pressing?
expand_more
Yes, kernels are cleaned, de-stoned, and passed through magnetic separation to remove iron particles, then conditioned with steam before being fed to the press.
Q4. What is the quality of the extracted peanut oil?
expand_more
The multi-stage, low-temperature miscella distillation process preserves oil quality, delivering refined-ready crude oil suitable for the edible oil industry.
Q5. What level of efficiency does the solvent recovery system offer?
expand_more
Our closed-loop, zero-venting solvent recovery system keeps hexane loss consistently under 2.0 liters per ton, among the lowest in the groundnut solvent extraction plant industry.
Q6. What plant capacities are available for groundnut processing?
