There are two kinds of oil extraction methods, expeller pressed and solvent extracted method. The follow is the detail information about the two kinds of OIL EXTRACTION methods.
1.Solvent Extracted:
Sometimes it is necessary to use a solvent in order to extract the oil from certain seeds, nuts or kernels in order to make the extraction cost effective. Once the oil has been obtained, the solvent is then removed from the oil, but a trace percentage of the solvent may still be present in the final oil. Coconut, Palm, Grapeseed and Rice Bran are typically solvent extracted
2.Expeller Pressed:
Expeller pressed oils are mechanically pressed from the botanical material at high pressure to obtain maximum yield. Not all expeller pressed oils are cold pressed as high pressure extraction can cause temperatures to rise above 120 degrees. Only if temperature is monitored and kept under 120 degrees, can the oil be called cold pressed. Otherwise it is simply called expeller pressed. FromNatureWithLove.com always strives to supply cold pressed oils whenever possible, however, some oils cannot be cold pressed.
