  • Should castor oil be extracted in South Africa?
  • Given the increasing popularity of castor oil in the media, there is growing interest in the product. The proposed castor oil extraction plant in South Africa is expected to meet the local demand for castor oil and even provide a surplus for export.
  • What is a feasibility study for the extraction of castor oil?
  • abstract = "A feasibility study for the design and construction of a pilot plant for the extraction of castor oil in South Africa was conducted. The study emphasized the four critical aspects of project feasibility analysis, namely technical, financial, market and managerial aspects.
  • Where are castor seeds produced in South Africa?
  • The largest factories for castor seeds in South Africa can be found in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng provinces. South African domestic production is stable enough to be able to accommodate the local demand, thus most of the castor seeds products consumed in the country are produced locally. Castro oil is usually obtained by pressing the castor beans.
  • How is castor oil extracted?
  • The ripe castor seeds are dried and passed via dehulling to eliminate the shells before extraction. The seeds are then thoroughly pre-cleaned before cooking and then passed through another drying process. Cooking helps to thicken protein and to release the castor oil for optimal pressing. Pre-pressing is the initial phase of castor oil extraction.
  • Why are castor seeds so volatile in South Africa?
  • Lately, the South African industry for these nutritious seeds has been pretty volatile in terms of production, while the demand for vegetable oil has increased by almost 40%. The volatility experienced by the production of castor seed caused visible fluctuation in the volumes produced.
  • How Castor oil expeller Machine Works?
  • The castor oil expeller machine has many outstanding features that can great improve the whole castor oil extraction process. The ripe castor seeds are dried and passed via dehulling to eliminate the shells before extraction. The seeds are then thoroughly pre-cleaned before cooking and then passed through another drying process.
