Solvent Extraction Plant Manufacturer in Gujarat

Mecha Engineering Pvt. Ltd. designs and fabricates solvent extraction plants at its own works at Village Meharbani on Behat Road, Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, and supplies them across Gujarat. The company was set up in 2022 and builds extraction, distillation, drying and process equipment for edible oil, agro-processing, feed, herbal and chemical units in Gujarat, the rest of India and export markets.

Batch type mini plants start at around 10 TPD, and continuous lines are built from 20 TPD up to 500 TPD. In Gujarat most enquiries come from expeller groups adding extraction behind existing crushing capacity, so tell us how much cake your presses already produce each day and we size the extractor to that first, with headroom for a second line later.

Groundnut cake, cottonseed, castor seed and cake, sesame cake, soyabean, rice bran, mustard cake and refinery spent bleaching earth. Stainless steel versions handle spice oleoresin and herbal material. Castor in particular behaves differently in a bed from groundnut or cotton, so we ask for an oil content and moisture report before quoting.

A properly prepared and correctly loaded plant leaves under one percent oil in the meal on a dry basis, and 0.5 to 0.7 percent is achievable where the feed goes through an expander. Preparation matters more than the extractor here, which is why we quote the preparatory section and the extractor together rather than separately.

Typical consumption runs around 1.5 to 2.5 litres per tonne of material processed. Loss is controlled by condenser sizing, a properly working solvent water separator, sealed conveyors and a vent gas absorption column that scrubs uncondensed vapour with mineral oil before anything leaves the plant.

The hexane area is designed as a hazardous zone from the start. Flameproof motors, starters and field instruments, bonded earthing across the structure, nitrogen purging connections, gas detection points and a vapour recovery loop are part of the standard scope, and drawings are prepared in the form your statutory and insurance inspections in Gujarat ask for.

Yes. Common jobs are adding a preparatory or expander section ahead of an existing extractor, replacing a worn extractor chain and screen assembly, upgrading a DT to a DTDC, rebuilding the distillation and recovery block to cut steam, and adding a PLC panel to a manually run plant. Send photographs, your current layout and a nameplate reading to start.

Yes, and the scope is the same as for a site next door. Foundation and civil drawings, structural erection, equipment installation, piping, insulation, utility tie-in, water and solvent trials, first production run and operator training at your Gujarat site are included. Our erection team travels to site and stays until the plant is producing to specification.

Mini and batch plants are generally ready in 12 to 16 weeks. Continuous lines take 20 to 30 weeks depending on capacity and automation, with erection running alongside your civil work. Road freight from Saharanpur to Saurashtra, Kadi or north Gujarat is quoted at actual cost, and for large vessels and structures we arrange the trailer, route survey and unloading crane.
