Flow Chart Solvent Extraction 2

The document describes the process flow of a solvent extraction plant (SEP) for extracting oil from rice bran and oil cake. The key steps involve: 1) Raw materials (rice bran or oil cake) are fed into an extractor along with hexane solvent to produce a miscella mixture of oil and hexane. 2) The miscella undergoes condensation to separate the hexane, which is reused in the extraction process. The extracted materials (deoiled rice bran or cake) are by-products. 3) Final recovery of hexane uses a water and vapor absorption system, with distillation to separate hexane from water, which is treated in an effluent treatment plant.
