  • How are market prices for corn germ calculated?
  • Market prices for corn germ, which is used for the extraction of corn oil, are not readily available, but can be calculated from the germ's protein and oil content and current market values of crude corn oil and corn based protein feeds (Johnston et al., 2005).
  • Is corn germ a good oil-bearing material in edible oil industry?
  • Corn germ is a good oil-bearing material in edible oil industry. With the development of corn processing industry such as starch, starch sugar and alcohol in recent years, corn germ oil has increased rapidly in the international market and has become one of the main edible vegetable oil varieties in the world.
  • What is the market value of corn germ?
  • In the model a market value of corn germ of US$ 0.296 kg −1 has been used based on a crude corn oil price of US$ 0.695 kg −1 (USDA, 2007) and a corn gluten feed price of US$ 0.08 kg −1 (Baker and Allen, 2007). 3.4. Annual and unit production costs
  • How to extract oil from corn or maize germ?
  • The main methods to extract oil from corn or maize germ: Screw pressing and solvent extraction . "Screw Oil Pressing / Expelling" is the most used in small to medium scale corn oil manufacturing process. (At present, most corn oil companies or factories use screw pressing process, the oil yield is around 70%.)
  • What are the main factors affecting the price of corn oil?
  • Except the type of corn used to produce corn oil, the price of corn oil and its demand in the global market is highly dependent on the efficiency of corn oil extraction machine as well as the solvent used for making corn oil. There are two main technologies of corn degermination: one is dry type and the other is wet type.
