- Description:
SESAME SEED EXPELLER - Sesame seed expeller comes from pressing residues arising from oil extraction of sesame seed.
In the case of pressure filtration, oilcakes are obtained by cold pressing (expeller pre-pressing) and subsequent hydraulic pressing, while expellers are produced by hot pressing (expeller final pressing).
The finished expellers leave the production plant while still hot and with variable moisture content. After pressing, the expellers are cooled and, since they are in large pieces, they are ground and adjusted to water content suitable for storage and transport. The ground products are then held in intermediate storage in silos or sent for transport.
Grain size: diameter 20 - 40 mm
Oil content: 1.9 - 12.1%
