The Processed Edible oil after refining and quality control,  is transferred to storage tanks.

Storage systems are designed to protect the oil from contamination and undesirable exposure to environmental conditions.

The oil is then filled into appropriate packaging such as bottles, containers, pouches or larger industrial packs.

From Seed to Bottle: An Integrated Engineering Process

Vegetable-oil manufacture is much more than simply extracting oil from a seed. Every operation described above is interconnected. Finally, quality control, storage and packaging ensure that the refined oil reaches the market in the required condition. The plant thus combines mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, heat and mass transfer, separation technology, process control, instrumentation and quality management.

For us, achieving high oil recovery is only one objective. The process must also balance product quality, energy consumption, equipment reliability, safety, environmental considerations and the value of by-products. This is what makes edible-oil processing a fascinating example of integrated process engineering.

From Oilseed to Edible Oil

Seed → Cleaning → Preparation → Cracking → Flaking → Conditioning → Extraction → Crude Oil → Refining → Quality Control → Storage → Packaging → Consumer

Behind every bottle of edible oil is therefore a complete industrial process.

At Plant Technologies International, the focus is on the engineering and equipment that make this transformation possible - from oilseed preparation and extraction - through to processing, plant equipment, spares and accessories.

From Seed to Oil. From Process to Product. From Plant to Value.
