Abstract

A method for preparing field muskmelon oil includes the following steps: S1, removing foreign matter, including: removing the foreign matter in field muskmelon seeds; S2, low-temperature pressing, including: performing the low-temperature pressing on the field muskmelon seeds after removing the foreign matter in step S1 to obtain an oil residue mixture; S3, filtering and removing impurities: filtering the oil residue mixture obtained by the low-temperature pressing in step S2 to remove the impurities to obtain a primary oil; and S4, centrifugal separation, including: centrifugally separating the primary oil obtained by filtering and removing impurities in step S3 to obtain the field muskmelon oil. The new method avoids using high-temperatures resulting in optimal yield of nutritional content and no harmful byproducts.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for preparing field muskmelon oil, comprising the following steps:
S1, removing foreign matter, comprising: removing the foreign matter in field muskmelon seeds; then removing a seed shell of the field muskmelon seeds, washing and drying the field muskmelon seeds at a constant temperature of 30° C. for 3-4 hours;
S2, low-temperature pressing, comprising: performing the low-temperature pressing on the field muskmelon seeds using a low-temperature spiral oil press machine after removing the foreign matter in step S1 to obtain an oil residue mixture; wherein the low-temperature pressing comprises first low-temperature pressing and second low- temperature pressing, and each of the first low-temperature pressing and the second low-temperature pressing is performed at 40-60° C. for 12-20 min;
S3, filtering and removing impurities, comprising: filtering the oil residue mixture obtained by the low-temperature pressing in step S2 to remove the impurities to obtain a primary oil; and
S4, centrifugally separating, comprising: centrifugally separating the primary oil obtained by filtering and removing the impurities in step S3 to obtain the field muskmelon oil.

2. The method for preparing the field muskmelon oil according to claim 1 , wherein the centrifugally separating in step S4 is performed at a rotation speed of 4000-6000 r/min for 10-20 min.

3. The method for preparing the field muskmelon oil according to claim 1 , wherein filtering and removing impurities in step S3 comprises filtering by a bag filter.

4. The method for preparing the field muskmelon oil according to claim 1 , wherein removing foreign matter in step S1 comprises treating the field muskmelon seeds by a cleaning sieve, a magnetic separator, and a stone removing machine, respectively.
