The kernel fractions are subjected to one or more pressings so as to obtain oil and an oil cake, the oil cake having solid content and oil content. The oil cake is subjected to at least one further milling process so as to provide an output that is a base material, filler material or additive for human foods.

  • Patent number: 9427013
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing rape seeds (A.A), according to which the seeds are hulled and separated into kernels (S.E) and hulls (S.G), the kernels (S.E) being subjected to one or more pressings in order to extract oil (P.A; P.C), leaving behind a press cake (P.B; P.D) containing solids and oil. Said method is carried out in such a way that the press cake (P.B; P.D) is either directly distributed or distributed after at least one further grinding process (K; W) as a raw material, filler or additive (K. D) for animal feed.

  • Publication number: 20160063119
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating software testing. Test data available for testing computer program testing is stored at a data store. An individual may submit a reservation request for a portion of the test data. A reservation device may reserve the selected portion of the test data such that, while it is reserved, the test data is only modifiable during tests initiated by the individual that reserved it. Other individuals may be restricted from modifying test data they have not reserved. A test data search interface may be used to configure a search query for the test data. An estimated reservation duration may be received with a reservation request, and notifications may be provided when that duration has or is about to expire. The reserved test data may be released for subsequent reservation, or the reservation may be renewed upon receipt of a renewal request.
