Effects of expression and pre-processing conditions on sunflower oil production in a static press were studied. Models to predict input energy for sunflower oil expression were developed for four seed types. Input energy was found to be the lowest for whole seed at low seed moisture content, whereas, at higher moisture content, coarsely ground seed required the lowest input energy. Maximum net energy was required in the case of ground seeds. In the case of whole seed, maximum net energy was required at the lowest moisture level. 9 references.
