Once weevils get into sesame seeds or any other food, you cannot remove them.
Weevils are generally smaller than the seeds, so you could try sieving them through a strainer. But you'll still miss some adults, larva and eggs.
Another method might be to try floating them off in water, but that would only work if sesame seeds don't float. It would be intensive work, success is not guaranteed and the seeds would have to be dried.

What are sesame seeds used for?
Sesame seeds are a good source of Vitamin E and antioxidants.
They also have a lot of calcium! About 975 mg in every 100 g! That's almost five times the calcium found in 100 g of milk!
Sesame seeds are a very good source of manganese, copper, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, vitamin B1, zinc, and fiber. In addition, sesame seeds contain two unique substances: sesamin and sesamolin. Both of these substances belong to a group of special beneficial fibers called lignans, which lower cholesterol, prevent high blood pressure, and increase vitamin E supplies. Sesamin has also been found to protect the liver from oxidative damage. Just a quarter-cup of sesame seeds supplies 74.0% of the daily value for copper, 31.6% for magnesium, and 35.1% for calcium. Copper reduces some of the pain and swelling of rheumatoid arthritis because it is important in a number of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant enzymes. In addition, copper plays an important role in the activity of lysyl oxidase, an enzyme needed for the cross-linking of collagen and elastin, the substances that provide structure, strength, and elasticity in blood vessels, bones, and joints. Magnesium prevents airway spasm in asthma; lowers high blood pressure; prevents the blood vessel spasms that trigger migraines; and restores normal sleep patterns in menopausal women. Calcium helps protect colon cells from cancer-causing chemicals; prevents bone loss that can occur as a result of menopause or certain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis; prevents migraine headaches; and reduces premenstrual symptoms. When the hulls remain on the seeds, one tablespoon of sesame seeds contains about 88 milligrams of calcium. When the hulls are removed, this same tablespoon will contain about 37 milligrams (about 60% less); however, the calcium in the hulls is largely in the form of calcium oxalate, a less absorbable form of calcium than the form found in the kernels, so you would absorb less than the 51 additional milligrams found in the seed hulls. Zinc helps prevent osteoporosis of the hip and spine. Sesame seeds have the highest total phytosterol content of any food (400-413 mg per 100 grams) (100 grams is equivalent to 3.5 ounces.) Phytosterols are compounds in plants that have a chemical structure very similar to cholesterol, and can reduce blood levels of cholesterol, enhance the immune response, and decrease the risk of certain cancers.

Substitutions are usually acceptable unless the oil is a key component of the recipe due to flavor, viscosity or temperature while cooking.
What is the purpose of having sesame seeds on hamburger buns?

If you plant a sesame seed will anything grow?
I sowed a pie dish full of ordinary, grocery store-bought sesame seeds, added a bit of soil over them, watered the dish and kept it covered in a a warm, sunny place - and now it's full of happy little sproutlings, so I'd say yes, they do grow. Of course, it depends on your batch of seeds; some may react very well to being planted, while some might not grow at all. The level to which the seeds have been treated is likely a factor. The sproutlings seem to like the sun, but they can dry up easily, and they don't like too much water either, but all in all they seem to possess a lot of vitality.
