Corn Oill Proudction Process - How to get oil from corn?
The oil extraction process from corn germ is very similar to rice bran!
The Corn oil processing always starts with the Corn Germ. The Germ is a part the corn plant called an embryo, which is recognizably different from the usual nutrients found in the endosperm. The endosperm is a tissue which is produced inside the seed of the plant. It protects the embryo and gives it nutrition. (Read more about setting up rice bran oil manufacturing plant and cost >>)
Corn Seeds Composition | Seed Coat | Germ | Endosperm |
---|---|---|---|
Proportion of the whole seeds (%) | 6%~9% | 7%~12% | 80%~85% |
Oil Content (%) | 1.3% | 83% | 15% |
Corn Germ Separation Process
The first step of corn oil production is Corn Germ Separation. It is also known as corn embryo extracting or germ extraction. There are 3 main corn germ separation processes:
- Dry type corn germ separation
- Wet type corn germ separation
- Half-wet corn germ separation
Corn Germ Oil Extraction Process
The amount of oil in corn germ is around 85% of all the oil in the whole seed. How to make cooking oil from corn? There are a few steps in the corn oil production line.
Corn Oil Manufacturing Process
Generally, corn oil is produced by expeller pressed method, then solvent-extracted the oil cake by using hexane or isohexane. The solvent is then recovered for re-use by evaporation. The extracted crude corn oil is then sent to refining plant (including degumming, dewaxing, alkali treatment) to get high quality edible corn germ oils.
Corn Oil Refinery Process
Equipment for Producing Refined Corn Oil
During the corn oil refining process, degumming or alkali treatment is used to remove phosphatides. Alkali treatment also neutralizes free fatty acids and removes color of the crude oil. Winterization is the then comes up to remove waxes. The final step of refining is deodorization by steam distillation of the oil at 232–260 °C under high vacuum.

Global Market of Corn Production and Corn Oil Application
The country that was accounted for the share of the global corn market in 2015 was North America, and it will more than likely that would hold that position for these coming years. Grown in Canada, it is one of their most valuable crops to produce, and it is grown on a large scale. Corn oil growth and high demand covers the entire globe, through Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America and Middle East Africa.
The world of the corn oil market was separated into a few different areas, which is cooking oil, biodiesel, soap making, paint, textiles, pharmaceutical preparations and others. The biggest share noted for the corn market globally was biodiesel which looks to hold its place in the years to come. Being the healthiest oil to use, it stays in high demand.
