  • Who is the largest Shea Nut processor in Ghana?
  • Since 2006, GSFIL has grown to become the largest processor of shea nuts in Ghana, manufacturing shea oils and butter. With a processing capability of upwards of 25,000 tonnes a year, making it the biggest shea nut processor in Ghana.
  • What is deacidification system of crude oil refinery plant?
  • Deacidification system of crude oil refinery plant is for removing free fatty acids (FFA) from pressed or extracted crude oil.
  • Why is deacidification necessary in crude oil refining process?
  • Since FFA would produce irritating odor and accelerate the hydrolysis rancidity rate of neutral oil, deacidification is necessary and it has long been used as the greatest economic benefits for crude oil refining process, and the removal of FFA from crude oil is also the most difficult process in the crude oil refinery plant.
  • What is the mechanical press method of shea butter extraction?
  • The mechanical press method of shea butter extraction has been reported by FAO and CFC (2002) but one of the earliest research on the use of the mechanical press was by Marchand (1988). His research revealed that equipped with a jack that exerts 30 tonnes of force, a shea butter press could crush more than 3 kg of shea kernels within 20 minutes.
