using screw press. For pressing of oil a screw press Farmer 20

duo (Farmer
20, Farmet a.s., Ceska Skalice, Czech republic) was used. The screw rotation speed 10, 20, 30,
40, 55 and 65
rpm was used. Oil recovery efficiency and specific mechanical energy were
decreased when the seed material troughput was increased. It has been found that the optimal
