Oil Mill
An oil mill is a facility where oilseeds, such as soybeans, sunflower seeds, or canola, are processed to extract oil. The process typically involves cleaning the seeds, crushing them, and then using mechanical or chemical methods to separate the oil from the solid components. The extracted oil can be used for cooking, industrial applications, or as a base for various products.
In addition to oil extraction, oil mills often produce meal or cake, which are the byproducts of the oil extraction process. These byproducts are rich in protein and can be used as animal feed or in other agricultural applications. Oil mills play a crucial role in the food supply chain and contribute to the economy by providing essential products.
