Sesame Oil Production Weight Calculator

This calculator helps determine the amount of sesame oil that can be produced from a given weight of sesame seeds based on industry standard extraction efficiency.

Input Parameters

Average sesame oil extraction efficiency is typically 40-60%

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

Oil Weight (kg) = Seed Weight (kg) × Extraction Efficiency (%) / 100

Where:
Seed Weight is the total weight of sesame seeds input
Extraction Efficiency is the percentage of oil extracted from the seeds

Sesame Oil Production Weight Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Sesame Oil Production Weight Calculator and understand its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the weight of sesame seeds in kilograms (kg) in the "Sesame Seed Weight" field.
  2. Set the extraction efficiency percentage. The default value is 50%, which is a typical average for sesame oil extraction. You can adjust this based on your specific extraction method.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the estimated sesame oil production.
  4. The calculator will display both the weight of sesame oil produced (in kg) and its approximate volume (in liters).

Understanding the Calculation

The calculator uses the following formula:

Oil Weight (kg) = Seed Weight (kg) × Extraction Efficiency (%) / 100

This formula estimates the amount of oil that can be extracted based on the weight of seeds and the efficiency of the extraction process. The extraction efficiency varies depending on the method used (e.g., cold pressing, solvent extraction) and the quality of sesame seeds.

Practical Applications

  • Helps in estimating yield for sesame oil production
  • Assists in planning seed requirements for oil production
  • Can be used to evaluate different extraction methods
  • Provides basic cost calculations for seed-to-oil conversion

Important Notes

This calculator provides an estimate based on standard industry values. Actual yields may vary based on:

  • Quality and variety of sesame seeds
  • Specific extraction technology used
  • Environmental conditions during processing
  • Seed moisture content
