Product Description
Cotton Seed Oil Solvent Extraction Plant [EIRI-1563]
Cotton seed oil is derived from the seeds of various species of cotton that are grown primarily for their fibres. The oil and protein contents of the seeds vary wita the variety and agro climatic conditions. Some varieties may have up to 25% oil content. Refined cotton seed oil is used mainly for edible purposes such as salad and cooking oils, shortening, margarine and to a lesser extent in the packing if fish and cured meat. Low grade oil is used in the manufacture of soaps, lubricants and protective coatings. The by-product of the proposed plant is expeller cake which is used for animal feed. Cotton, the king of natural fibres is mainly cultivated for its lint which is the most sought after textile fibre till date due to its inherent eco-friendly and comfort characteristics. It is also one of the important cash crops of many of the Afro-Asian countries like India, Iran, Egypt, Sudan, Uzbekistan, Tanzania, etc. and plays a major role in their economic development. However, of late, cotton cultivation in general and especially in these countries is becoming non-remunerative on account of higher cost of inputs by way of plant protection measures, low productivity in rain fed cultivation, etc. As a result, the cultivators are not able to get adequate returns commensurate with their inputs. Hence, there is an urgent need to explore alternative means of increasing the returns from cotton farming. While efficient use of available resources, good quality seeds, organic cultivation, transgenic cotton etc. could reduce the cost of cultivation and enhance productivity, a judicious approach to promote the use of by-products from cotton cultivation through value addition route offers an attractive proposition to generate additional income to the farming community and the industries.
