The prepared material from Preparatory section is recieved in the Feed Hopper through Rotary Valve. The material in the hopper and the rotary valve togelher constitute on effective vapour seal while the latter also serves to regulate the feed. The hopper is further provided with the special switches for high level and low level indications. The latter If energised stops the band conveyor of extractor while the high level indication, transmits an audio visual signal to Preparatory Section for preparatory operator to take corrective measures.

The GLAMPTECH Extractor is long horizontal vessel, Rectangular in cross section in m.s. Construction. An articulated band conveyor inside the Extractor receives the material from Feed Hopper and transports it at a pre determined speed from the feed end to discharge end.

The band conveyor moves over rails suitably located inside the Extractor and rides on specially constructed sprockets ot either end. The speed of the band conveyor is easily adjustable within desired limits. An adjustable damper enables the regulation of height of bed of material on band conveyor.

A series of sprayers locoted above ihe band conveyor enables perfect spray of the solvent on fhe moving bed. Special spray breakers facilitates uniform distribution of solvent over the entire width of moving bed. Each spraying section is followed by a draining section.

Fresh slovent is admitted into the Extractor near the discharge end of the moving bed of material and the full miscella is recovered from the initial stage; thus ensuring the perfect counter current flow of material and the solvent.It is not merely a simple countercurrent flow. The miscella circulates in a closed circuit in each of the successive section by overflowing from each hopper of fhe Extractor after increasing gradually its oil content in each hopper. so in each section there is on equilibrium between the oil extracted from the seed in corresponding section and the difference in oil content of solvent overflowing the preceding hopper together with the solvent overflowing the following section.

The cleaning of the band conveyors is accomplished by high pressure jet spray of fresh solvent onto the return of band conveyor at discharge end which ensures perfect cleaning of mesh and eliminates completely the possibilities of choking of mesh and channeling.

The extracted meal emerging from the D.T. is quite hot and at around 100 deg. C. It is received in the meal conveyor. This is ventilated conveyor in which the meal is cooled down to a convenient temperature as it is transported to the meal conditioning section. The cooling may also be effected by  draft of air through cyclone ond blower system.

Thus the cooled meal is received in the humidifier. In the humidification unit the desired quantity of water is metered in and finely sprayed on the material under process which is vigorously agitated and mixed. The emerging material generally contain moisture of over 10%.The Humidifier is generally located at 2 mtr. level from ground in order to enable direct packing of the material from it through a bagging device.

The company has set up flexible, continuous and multi-feedstock based plant (with a capacity of 300 tpd), which will lie at the core of a fully integrated biodiesel company. The plant is going to be based on best-in-class technology from leading global technology providers.

Preparation of oil bearing material prior to its extraction is often under estimated by many processors. To achieve the best results in solvent extraction, the way in which the row material is prepared is almost as important as extraction equipments itself.

The feed stock should have a particle size small'enough to enable the solvent to reach right up to the core, but at the same time not so small as to constitute 'fines'; should have fairly uniform particle size in order to 'pack well' in the extractor and form a homogenous bed and should possess good percolation characteristics. Too big pieces in the feed results in high residual oil content in meal as the solvent may not be able to penetrate to the core. And too small particles or fines will lead to poor percolation and channeling effect, thus resulting in poor performance of the plant.

Fully conscious of the importance of proper preparation, glamptech have, after a long experience, developed a complete range of preparatory equipment suited for each type of raw material. Expeller cakes. Expeller cakes are adequately handled by cake breaker (702) and roller mill (703). In the former, iwo pairs of spiked rolls made in special alloy, running on heavy bearings, and with driving mechanism, break the large pieces of cakes in the smaller pieces. These pieces are further broken down into smaller pieces in the roller mill (703), in which special corrugated rolls are utilized. The resulting product is eminently suited for extraction.
