Abstract
An oil production apparatus includes a reaction vessel where raw material composed of an agricultural residue or a fishery residue is fed, a water vapor injecting unit for injecting saturated water vapor into the reaction vessel, a kneading unit for kneading a content in the reaction vessel, a temperature sensor disposed at a lower part of the reaction vessel, a pressure regulating unit regulating the pressure, a control unit for controlling driving of the water vapor injection unit, the kneading unit, the pressure regulating unit, a housing for making a working area for extraction of oil oxygen-free, a solid-liquid separation unit for separating solid from a product and water removal unit both disposed in the housing, and a nitrogen injection unit for injecting nitrogen into the housing. A method for obtaining the oil is also presented.
