Detailed Project Report on ground nut oil mill

GROUNDNUT OIL MILL
[CODE NO. 4783


Ground oil, otherwise known as peanut oil,arachis  oil, or earthnut oil, is one of the two or three most important edible oils    (oil content 45-55%) of the plant arachis  hypogaea,which is grown in large quantities in Africa, India and China. The oil is  pale yellow and has the characteristic odour and  flavour  of peanut. Compared with other seed oils, particularly cottonseed oil, it is relatively   free from  phosphatides,etc.           

Groundnut oil is used mainly for edible purposes in the preparation of shortenings, margarines, and mayonnaise and as a cooking and salad oil and of pharmaceutical quality is obtained from the seed by cold expression.  The B.P recommends its use as a substitute  for  olive  oil in making  ointments,   liniments, plasters  and soaps.  Its use is authorized in preparations  such as solutions of vitamin A and D.Groundnut oil is considered to be an   emollient.

In veterinary medicine,it is  used as  a nutritive, laxative and emollient. It has been employed in the  form of an emulsion for the control of several insect  pests of plants.

Groundnut oil is being manufactured by a number of units  in India.  There are  quite  a  large  number of  expellers on small scale  which are engaged in the extraction of groundnut oil.   The endusers plant of the groundnut oil are growing day by day so the demand  of  groundnut oil is  increasing  considerably.  The  raw materials, and plant & machinery for the extraction of  groundnut oil are indigenously  available.
