Biofuel Production with Castor Bean: A Win–Win Strategy
The urgency to reduce resource depletion and waste production is expected to lead to an economy based on renewable resources. Biofuels, for instance,
Zambia: Farmer boosts income by processing oil from sunflower
Mrs. Kamuwikeni extracts the oil with the expeller, then cleans it by adding water and boiling. After filtering the oil, she bottles it. Mrs Kamuwikeni can sell a 25-kg bag of sunflower for 150 Zambia Kwacha ($6.60 US). Or she can process that bag into 10 litres of cooking oil and sell it for 430 Kwacha ($19 US).

The conditions for ethanol extraction that gave high oil yield were as follows: extraction temperature of 70 C, extraction time of 7 h, solvent-to-solid ratio of 6
Potential and Perspective of Castor Biorefinery - ScienceDirect
The major drawback of this (mechanical) process is that it cannot extract all the oil present in the seed. Even with the most efficient mechanical extraction system, 8%?0% oil remains in the castor cake. Mechanical oil extraction units used in the market Kachi Ghani and screw press are shown in Fig. 21.5.

Step 5: Castor Oil Clarification. In Reaction Vessel, the castor oil is heated by steam heating coils up to 60 70oC followed by open steam injection to increase
The industrial process of solvent extraction of castor oil
The industrial process for castor oil extraction produces the oil, as the main product, and generates large quantity of castor meal as a protein-rich by-product. Castor seed contains ricin, a highly toxic protein that remains in the meal after oil extraction.
