The WC SoyPlus® Process Utilizing the Dupps Oil Seed ProcessorIn the patented WC SoyPlus process, soybeans are comminuted sufficiently to crack the hulls and beans. The comminuted soybeans are then heated in a reactor to a specific temperature range (exact temperature is proprietary) and maintained at elevated temperatures for a specified period (exact time is proprietary). If the time/temperature conditions exceed an optimum level the nutrient value of the protein within the small intestine of the ruminant animal will be reduced.WC SoyPlus Process Flow Diagram After heating, the soyoil is extracted from the beans in a Dupps Oil Seed Pressor, specially engineered for the SoyPlus process. The Dupps Pressor typically processes 50 tons/day of cracked soybeans, resulting in 4.5%-5.0% resid- ual oil in the discharge cake. The Dupps Pressor shaft is a proprietary design and is optimized for long service life, low maintenance, and low horsepower usage (3.25/hp/ton).
