Regarding the application of CavitOil in the production of seed oils, the production process provides, as a first step, a pre-washing and washing of the seeds from the various powders and impurities, these mainly organic substances are transported via a conveyor belt in a collection tank for the collection of waste biomass: material that will be gasified or biodigested to produce the energy necessary for the plant and, the excess, fed into the national distribution network.
Once the seeds have been cleaned of impurities, they will be peeled and then peeled first and, then, the skins will be separated from the seeds. Depending on the seeds used, the technology used changes. For example, the machine for peeling soybean or sunflower seeds will be different from that for peanuts; nothing prohibits equipping a plant with both machines even with automatic sending to processing. The skins will also flow into the central biomass collection tank.
The dehusked seeds will be sent to the EMPOWERING DEVICE which, thanks to controlled cavitation, will increase the production and quality of the product, without the use of chemical additives.
The pasta produced with the EMPOWERING DEVICE will be carried to a press that will separate the pulp from the oil where the solid part will always be collected in the tank destined for biomass.
Scientific research in recent years has been consolidating the idea that the future of the art of olive oil milling lies in low-frequency ultrasound: a technology that, by overturning the historical paradigm between quantity and quality of the product, allows for an increase in oil yield while preserving polyphenols.
EMPOWERING DEVICE being able to exploit two types of controlled cavitation, mechanical and sonic, enhances the effect in oils since the rotor is designed for water, present in oils but not in very large quantities, so its effect is present but has a secondary effect, managing to shred the pasta better and therefore to increase the yield of the extraction press.
Once produced, still raw, very nutritious and rich in polyphenols, the oil can be bottled. Alternatively, it can be sent to a cyclone that will eliminate the water and suspended materials, typical of crude oils, and can also be stored in settling tanks, to obtain a clearer and more limpid product.
On average, for every 2 tons of seed oil yield, about 3 tons of vegetable waste with a high calorific value are obtained.
The innovation generated is of a radical type since it is not a slight change of pre-existing solutions and the economic analysis reveals that the use of this continuous cavitation system can guarantee, even in Western countries, an increase in revenues such as to repay the plant in a very short time.
