Flash desolventization system for oilseed processing
Achieve rapid desolventization with minimal heat exposure, preserving the integrity and quality of temperature-sensitive materials in your production line.
Rapidly Desolventizes and Dries Solvent-Wet Products
The Flash Desolventization System from Crown Iron Works is designed for processors in industries such as biofuel production, oilseed processing, and hemp CBD oil extraction. This system uses a pneumatic conveying dryer to expose solvent-wet products directly to superheated solvent vapors, ensuring rapid desolventization and drying within seconds. Its small vertical footprint allows for seamless integration into existing production lines, making it ideal for continuous operations.
Engineered for temperature-sensitive materials, it leverages evaporative cooling to protect product integrity while effectively removing solvents. The system accommodates various end-products, including biodiesel, edible oils, and plant-based protein isolates. With its vapor-tight controlled environment, the system offers enhanced solvent recovery efficiency.
Crown Iron Works ensures energy efficiency and reduced operational costs as all heat required for solvent evaporation is applied during the initial mixing phase. Available in durable materials to resist corrosion, this equipment can be tailored to meet specific processing requirements. The Flash Desolventization System supports industry standards for safety and performance, providing a reliable solution for demanding industrial applications.
