A sesame hulling plant is an industrialfacility designed to process raw sesameseeds by removing their outer hull or husk.This process improves the texture, taste,and nutritional value of the seeds, makingthem more suitable for various foodproducts like tahini, sesame oil, and bakeryitems. Here's an overview of how a sesamehulling plant works.Pre-Cleaning: The raw sesame seeds arefirst cleaned to remove dust, stones, andother foreign materials using mechanicalequipment l i ke v ibrator y screens ,destoners, and magnetic separators.Key Steps in the Sesame Hulling Process:Soaking: The cleaned sesame seeds aresoaked in water to soften the outer hulls.This step makes it easier to remove thehulls without damaging the seed kernel. Hulling: After soaking, the seeds are passed through de-hulling machines that mechanicallyrub the seeds to remove their outer husk. Water may be used to aid this process. Hulling mayalso involve abrasive or centrifugal force methods, depending on the machinery used. Separation: Once the hulls are loosened, they are separated from the kernels. This is typicallydone through flotation, where the hulls float to the surface, and the heavier seed kernels sink.Drying: The de-hulled sesame seeds are dried using hot air or other drying mechanisms toreduce moisture content and prepare the seeds for storage or further processing.Shelling: are shelled to separate the nuts from their outer shells. This can be done usingvarious methods using a de-shelling (decorticator) machineFinal Cleaning and Grading: The final cleaning removes any remaining impurities, and theseeds are graded based on size and quality for different market uses.Packaging: The processed sesame seeds are then packaged for distribution.
