To correctly cook and condition the material prior to flaker. Vertical, multi-stage unit with fabricated shell and trays where heating is carried out by indirect steam. The gates operated by mechanical level system automatically control the flow of material and the level in each stage. A central shaft driven by a gearbox carried agitator blades to ensure a good mix, a homogenous treatment of the material and prevents burning on the stage bottoms. A vertical duct extracts exhaust vapors from each stage. Provision is made to adjust final moisture levels of the material by injecting water or direct steam.
Salient Features :
- The suction load data of each steam jet ejector is precisely calculated which ensures lowest possible consumption of steam, thus reduction in recurring expenses along with reduction in heat load on condensation system
- Distillation is carried out in three stages of vacuum. There by achieving incremental concentration of miscella at predetermined rate. Further more each stage is differentiated by incorporation of precisely designed U type siphon pipe, eliminating the use of centrifugal pump. This ensures continuous flow of miscella, & reduces power consumption
- Economizer is specially designed having built in flasher, which provides the compact design, Minimum plant space and reduction in unwanted piping. This design itself provides the high efficiency flashing which increase the miscella concentration up to 75%
- The final stage striping is carried out in presence of steam under higher vacuum of 700 mmHg. This allows the lower temperature distillation and they’re by ensuring undamaged crude oil without color fixation

Band Conveyor Assembly designed in such a way to act as filter bed for eliminating fines, complete with rotary brushes & mesh cleaning system for effective cleaning of mesh.
Salient features of solvent extraction plant :
- Drive : Extractor has single piece Hollow shaft gear box having out put of 0.05 rpm, which is mounted on the extractor main shaft. This is excellence of engineering that avoids the use of Big Gear and pinion arrangement prone to frequent maintenance. Extractor Motor is driven by Variable frequency drive that allows finite adjustment of speed as per processing rates and also allows the data-logging like Run time, stoppage history etc
- Construction :
- Extractor has Single piece miscella hoppers having no joint. This reduces the welding and chances of leakage during operations
- All body plates and internals are sandblasted and Zink base epoxy primer coated prior to manufacture. This increase life by reducing chances of corrosion and increases life of equipment
- Extractor is fabricated in factory, ( site fabrication is avoided) and running trial is taken in factory to ensure trouble free running at site
- Prefabrication reduces the time for erection and plant will be started quickly
- Selection of size - is such that the bed height is limited to 1.5m which reduces the chances of miscall channelling
- The advantages of low bed height is –
- Rate of mark feeding to DT is consistent. Which ensures consistence vapour flow and control on hexane loss
- Loading of extractor Bed is low, i.e. weight per square m is low compared to true deep bed extractors which ensures low wear and tear of band conveyor, ensuring long life
- Additional two hoppers -
- Extra miscella hopper at discharge end to allow more hexane to drain before it is fed to DT, hence load on DT is low ensuring low steam consumption to evaporate Hexane and low water circulation for condensation as well
- Extra miscall hopper at feed end to ensure the settling of miscella before it is transferred to Miscella tank. Major fines are settled in this hoppers which are then pumped on the top of extractor
- The additional miscella spray of this hopper is used to soak the incoming Flakes so that the regular miscella circulation sprays are used effectively
