Driving Efficiency in Edible Oil Processing: Forbes Marshall at Soy Conclave 2025
Soy Conclave 2025 brought together the leadership and decision-makers shaping India’s soya processing industry. Held on 8 – 9 October in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India, the conference and exhibition provided a powerful platform to engage with plant owners, consultants, OEMs, and industry influencers from across the solvent extraction ecosystem.
The conclave attracted senior stakeholders from Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Telangana, providing Forbes Marshall a valuable opportunity to strengthen relationships and engage in meaningful, business-focused discussions on the Edible oil industry’s challenges and future-ready solutions. Discussions focused on optimising steam and process control strategies across preparation, desolventising-toasting (DT), distillation and boiler operations to improve boiler efficiency and overall plant productivity.
At the Forbes Marshall stall, conversations centred on the evolving operational and economic pressures faced by solvent extraction plants – and how smarter automation and sustained performance can make a measurable difference. The spotlight was on DTmac, Forbes Marshall’s integrated automation solution for desolventising toasters and heaters in solvent extraction plant preparation sections, designed to optimise plant-level KPIs while improving reliability and consistency.
Through one-on-one interactions, the team showcased how DTmac acts as a one-stop automation package, featuring benefits like reduced steam consumption, reduced solvent losses, improved productivity, higher capacity utilisation, and better control over critical parameters such as CRF and product quality.
Visitors were shown how these outcomes are supported by KPI dashboards and reinforced through Forbes Marshall’s sustenance services, ensuring that performance is not only achieved but sustained over time. Continuous engagement between plant operations teams and the FM team enables customers to maintain desired process parameters, thereby sustaining key performance indicators consistently.
