Green solvents and technologies for oil extraction from
The conventional technology used for oil extraction from oilseeds is by solvent extraction. In solvent extraction, n -hexane is used as a solvent for its attributes such as simple recovery, non-polar nature, low latent heat of vaporization (330 kJ/kg) and high selectivity to solvents. However, usage of hexane as a solvent has lead to several
Oil extraction yield is more significant when using terpenes, CPME, and 2-MeTHF. In contrast, some advanced technologies such as enzyme-assisted, supercritical fluids, deep eutectic solvent, and ionic liquids seem less efficient than ordinary processes using hexane for soybean oil extraction.
Understanding Hexane Extraction of Vegetable Oils
Hexane (C6H14) is a hydrocarbon extracted from crude oil. In fact, hexane is similar to the gasoline we put in our cars; it’s just a slightly lighter molecule made of six carbon chains—compared to octane’s eight. In its pure form, hexane is a colorless solvent that evaporates easily and dissolves only slightly in water.
This fast extraction rate was due to the exposure of the milled IGK particles to fresh solvent which makes the solubilization of the free oil on the surface of the IGK very easy, as such, oil was quickly extracted. 26 However, during the later extraction stages, the oil diffused from the interior of the IGK particles and dissolve in the solvent
Screening, experimental data, and robust kinetic modeling of
Green solvents have been explored to replace the application of n-hexane and turn the extraction into a more sustainable process. In this work, oil was extracted from soybeans using terpene as the green solvent, and the technical feasibility of replacing n-hexane with p-cymene was evaluated for the first time. Insights into solvent selection were gained through Hansen solubility parameters

This study addresses the need for a more environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to hexane, the conventional solvent for oil extraction. Hexane, while efficient in dissolving oil, poses neurotoxicity risks and stems from nonrenewable sources. In contrast, ethanol, produced via biotechnological methods, offers a promising alternative due to its minimal environmental impact, cost
Hexane is the most common solvent used in rice bran oil extraction . This solvent is cheap and efficient, but it is a petroleum-based solvent, volatile, flammable, and dangerous for humans and for the environment . Several efforts have recently been made to find alternatives to this organic compound, focusing on green, non-petroleum-derived
Review of Alternative Solvents for Green Extraction of Food
A microwave-assisted solvent extraction (MASE) system was probed for the extraction optimization of sandbox seed oil. Performance evaluation of three solvent types (acetone, ethyl acetate, and hexane) was compared as a function of oil yield and ethyl acetate proved to be a better solvent with oil yield 1.28 times higher than n -hexane under
