EverSense for Solvent Extraction Plants

Going #BeyondConnectivity to improve and sustain specific steam consumption and recovery factor of your solvent extraction plant (SEP), ensuring economy, productivity, safety, reliability and sustainability of operations.

The specific steam consumption (SSC) and condensate recovery factor (CRF) of desolventising toaster (DT) and heater varies by 20% resulting in increased costs.

In today’s dynamic and competitive landscape, where energy costs continue to rise, maintaining an efficient steam system is imperative. An increase in SSC and reduction in CRF leads to incremental fuel and fresh water consumption and solvent (hexine) consumption.

SSC and CRF variation factors include:

  • the design of the steam condensate system,
  • uptime of components and control loops,
  • proportion of direct and indirect steam,
  • operating pressures,
  • operating procedures,
  • moisture in seed (varying over time)
  • seed type,
  • machine speed, and
  • operator experience.

Proactive
Issue Resolution

Monitoring right set points for DOC and hexane temperature, for open steam, for compartment wise temperature control, gives us insights, enabling feedback for efficient operation.

Operational
Efficiency

We help establish standard operating procedures (SOPs) for different production levels and types. We also provide training to operators on best practices.
