Process for producing corn oil

摘要

Corn oil is produced by several process modifications in which maize is initially milled, the higher oil-content germ is separated from the lower oil-content germ, and then the lower oil content germ is pelletized. Thereafter, the processes vary with regard to mixing, heating and flaking the different oil-content germ fractions prior to a final step in which a mixed flaked product is extracted to remove corn oil therefrom.
