The third section is desolventizing and roasting the meal-mainly using the DTDC to separate the solvent from the meal, which is convenient for solvent recycling. The last section is the recovery of solvent, mainly should be the condenser, and the water distribution tank will recover the solvent.

No matter what your processing capacity is, we can provide you with corresponding sunflower seed oil processing machine.
