There are three methods for extracting vegetable oils from plants. The relevant part of the plant may be placed under pressure to "extract" the oil, giving an expressed oil. Oils may also be extracted from plants by dissolving parts of plants in water or another solvent. The solution may be separated from the plant material and concentrated, giving an extracted or leached oil. The mixture may also be separated by distilling the oil away from the plant material. Oils extracted by this latter method are called essential oils. Essential oils often have different properties and uses than pressed or leached vegetable oils. Macerated oils are made by infusing parts of plants in a base oil a process known as maceration.
Although most plants contain some oil, only the oil from certain major oil crops [1] complemented by a few dozen minor oil crops[2] is widely used and traded. These oils are one of several types of plant oils.
Vegetable oils can be classified in several ways, for example:
- By source: most, but not all vegetable oils are extracted from the fruits or seeds of plants, and the oils may be classified by grouping oils from similar plants, such as "nut oils".
- By use: oils from plants are used in cooking, for fuel, for cosmetics, for medical purposes, and for other industrial purposes.
The vegetable oils are grouped below in common classes of use.

Nut oils
Nut oils are generally used in cooking, for their flavor. Most are quite costly, because of the difficulty of extracting the oil.
- Almond oil, used as an edible oil, but primarily in the manufacture of pharmaceutical drugs.[15]
- Cashew oil, somewhat comparable to olive oil. May have value for fighting dental cavities.[16]
- Hazelnut oil, mainly used for its flavor. Also used in skin care, because of its slight astringent nature.[17][18]
- Macadamia oil, strongly flavored, contains no trans fat.
- Mongongo nut oil (or manketti oil), from the seeds of the Schinziophyton rautanenii, a tree which grows in South Africa. High in vitamin E. Also used in skin care.[19]

Oils from melon and gourd seeds
Members of the cucurbitaceae include gourds, melons, pumpkins, and squashes. Seeds from these plants are noted for their oil content, but little information is available on methods of extracting the oil. In most cases, the plants are grown as food, with dietary use of the oils as a byproduct of using the seeds as food.[24]

Oils used for biofuel
A number of the oils listed above are used for biofuel (biodiesel and Straight Vegetable Oil) in addition to having other uses. A number of oils are used only as biofuel.[82][83]
Although diesel engines were invented, in part, with vegetable oil in mind,[84] diesel fuel is almost exclusively petroleum-based. Vegetable oils are evaluated for use as a biofuel based on:
- Suitability as a fuel, based on flash point, energy content, viscosity, combustion products and other factors
- Cost, based in part on yield, effort required to grow and harvest, and post-harvest processing cost
Multipurpose oils also used as biofuel
The oils listed immediately below are all (primarily) used for other purposes - all but tung oil are edible - but have been considered for use as biofuel.
- Castor oil, lower cost than many candidates. Kinematic viscosity may be an issue.[85]
- Coconut oil (copra oil), promising for local use in places that produce coconuts.[86]
- Corn oil, appealing because of the abundance of maize as a crop.
- Cottonseed oil, shown in one study not to be cost effective when compared with standard diesel.[87]
- False flax oil, from Camelina sativa, used in Europe in oil lamps until the 18th century.[52]
- Hemp oil, relatively low in emissions. High flash point. Production is problematic in some countries because of its association with marijuana.[88]
- Mustard oil, shown to be comparable to Canola oil as a biofuel.[89]
- Palm oil, very popular for biofuel, but the environmental impact from growing large quantities of oil palms has recently called the use of palm oil into question.[90]
- Peanut oil, used in one of the first demonstrations of the Diesel engine in 1900.[84]
- Radish oil. Wild radish contains up to 48% oil, making it appealing as a fuel.[91]
- Rapeseed oil, the most common base oil used in Europe in biodiesel production.[83]
- Ramtil oil, used for lighting in India.[92]
- Rice bran oil, appealing because of lower cost than many other vegetable oils. Widely grown in Asia.[93]

- Soybean oil, not economical as a fuel crop, but appealing as a byproduct of soybean crops for other uses.[83]
- Sunflower oil, suitable as a fuel, but not necessarily cost effective.[96]
- Tigernut oil has been described by researchers in China as having "great potential as a biodiesel fuel."[78]
- Tung oil, referenced in several lists of vegetable oils that are suitable for biodiesel.[97][98]
Inedible oils used only or primarily as biofuel
These oils are extracted from plants that are cultivated solely for producing oil-based biofuel.[99] These, plus the major oils described above, have received much more attention as fuel oils than other plant oils.
- Algae oil, recently developed by MIT scientist Isaac Berzin. Byproduct of a smokestack emission reduction system.[100][101]

- Petroleum nut oil, from the Petroleum nut (Pittosporum resiniferum ) native to the Philippines. The Philippine government once explored the use of the petroleum nut as a biofuel.[109]
Drying oils
Drying oils are vegetable oils that dry to a hard finish at normal room temperature. Such oils are used as the basis of oil paints, and in other paint and wood finishing applications. In addition to the oils listed here, walnut, sunflower and safflower oil are also considered to be drying oils.[110]
- Dammar oil, from the Canarium strictum, used in paint as an oil drying agent.[111] Can also be used as in oil lamps.[112]
