Solvent extraction is a common edible oil production process, and its advantages are mainly reflected in the following aspects.

Firstly, solvent extraction can achieve high yield. By solvent extraction, the oil components in raw materials can be fully extracted, which makes the yield of edible oil higher. Compared with the traditional pressing method, solvent extraction can extract the oil from the oil more thoroughly and improve the utilization rate of the oil. This is of great significance to the effective utilization of resources and helps to reduce production costs.
Secondly, high quality edible oil can be obtained by solvent extraction. Under the action of solvent, oil can be extracted more thoroughly, and impurities, pigments and other components in the oil are reduced, thus obtaining purer edible oil with better taste. This is of great significance for improving the quality and taste of edible oil.
In addition, the solvent extraction method has lower production cost. Compared with the traditional mechanical pressing method, the equipment investment required by solvent extraction is relatively small, and the energy consumption in the production process is low, so the production cost can be reduced. In addition, because the solvent can be recycled, the waste of raw materials and solvents can also be reduced, thus further reducing the production cost.
Generally speaking, the solvent extraction method has the advantages of high yield, high oil quality and low cost, so it has been widely used in edible oil production. Of course, we also need to pay attention to safety and environmental protection when using solvent extraction method to ensure the safety, reliability, environmental protection and health of the production process.
