Common challenges

What holds solvent and oil mill businesses back

  • Solvent loss is hard to see

    Solvent usage and recovery are logged separately, so losses are found after they have cost money.

  • Yield depends on seed quality

    Moisture and oil content of incoming seed are not linked to the yield achieved in production.

  • Batch costs are estimated

    Seed, solvent, energy and labour costs are not collected per production batch.

  • Contracts tracked outside the system

    Purchase and sales contracts for seed, oil and meal are monitored in spreadsheets.

Business outcomes

What you can expect to improve

Practical improvements that come from connected information, without guaranteed figures.

  • Solvent loss under control

    Daily solvent balance shows where losses happen.

  • Yield linked to quality

    Seed test results can be compared with batch yields.

  • True batch cost

    Cost sheets show the full cost of every batch.

  • Contracts in view

    Open quantities on purchase and sales contracts are always current.

Specialised requirements we confirm with you

Integrations with lab equipment, flow meters and leak-detection devices depend on your plant instrumentation and are confirmed during a site review.

FAQ

Solvent and Oil Mill ERP questions

Can Omnegic track solvent recovery?

Yes. Solvent usage is recorded with each batch, and solvent balance and recovery efficiency reports show where losses occur.

Does it support quality certificates?

Yes. Lab results for moisture, protein and oil content are recorded and quality certificates can be generated for products.

Is it suitable for a refinery as well as an extraction plant?

The solution is designed for oil mills, solvent plants and edible oil refineries, from seed crushing to cake handling. Your plant’s specific process is mapped during implementation.
