Vegetable oil is the richest source of food energy, providing twice
as much energy as the same quantity of carbohydrate or protein. In
areas where peanuts (groundnuts) or other soft oil-seeds are
cultivated, manual oil extraction using a screw press can be a
viable enterprise for small businesses.;The processes described in
"The Manual Screw Press for Small-Scale Oil Extraction" are
suitable for operation on a small-scale, which means they can be
used by rural people to control the processing and marketing of
cooking oil. This manual also explores how a small-scale oil
processing production unit or enterprise can make the most of links
with other businesses involved in utilizing the oilcake - such as
making sweets or animal feeds, in order to create further business
opportunities.;This manual explains the essential steps to be
undertaken before pressing the oil-seeds for maximum yields; such
as crushing, adding water and heating, and how many hectares of
groundnut will be needed to supply the oil press.;The manual also
details the planning necessary when considering setting up a
small-scale oil processing enterprise. Advice is given on exploring
the local market in order to establish what the demand for a
particular product will be, how to draw up a business plan and
obtain the necessary finance, how to organize production and market
the oil and by-products.
