Comparison of solvent systems on extraction, quality
However, environmental and health concerns make them undesirable solvents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extraction efficiency and physicochemical characteristics of palm kernel oil (PKO) extracted with the addition of acetone in HEX-acetone (1:1, vol/vol) and DCM-acetone (1:1, vol/vol) mixtures as an alternative to DCM and HEX alone.
The oil yield of 34.2% was obtained in the extraction condition of the ratio of palm kernel to ethyl acetate of 1:7, the rotational speed of 5000 rpm, and 10 minutes extraction time.
Soxhlet, microwave-assisted, and room temperature liquid
When compared with the mechanical oil extraction from palm kernels by screw pressing that required about 1.3 × 10 −3 kW h/g oil (Ezeoha et al., 2017), solvent extraction of the residual oil from PKC tended to consume more energy. Energy expenditure was then considered to assess the different extraction methods.
The model for the solvent extraction of palm kernel oil from palm kernel was generated for the process at varied particle sizes of palm kernel, temperature of extraction, duration of extraction and mass of palm kernel respectively using Least Square Linear Equation. Petroleum ether was used as solvent to carry out the extraction in a soxhlet apparatus. The percentage oil yield was determined
DIFFUSION RATE ANALYSIS IN PALM KERNEL OIL EXTRACTION
This study investigated the rate of diffusion on the extraction of palm kernel oil using various solvents, namely, n-hexane, Benzene, Trichloroethylene, and Carbon disulfide. The solvents and the
Water pollution and depletion of natural resources have motivated the utilization of green organic solvents in solvent extraction (SX) and liquid membrane (LM) for sustainable wastewater treatment and resource recovery. SX is an old and established separation method, while LM, which combines both the solute removal and recovery processes of SX in a single unit, is a revolutionary separation

After the extraction, the solvent is distilled off from the oil and fed back into the process. Ideally, for a high grade oil, the entire amount of hexane is recovered this way. The process objective is to minimise the loss of solvent vapour through venting, and to maximise the condensation of the solvent.
The oil yield of 34.2 ± 0.02% was obtained in the extraction condition of the ratio of palm kernel to ethyl acetate of 1:7, rotational speed of 5000 rpm and 10 minutes extraction time.
Green Solvent Improving Mechanical Disruption of Palm Kernel
Even though the mechanical extraction process offers a simple and environmentally friendly process, the recovery of oil is relatively low. Thermal pre-treating the oilseed increases the oil yield but produces unwanted oil colour. A new method which combines grinding and extraction using green
Palm kernel meal (PKM) is one of the main byproducts of the oil palm industry. PKM can be obtained as the result of solvent or mechanical extraction of palm kernel oil; in both cases, meal has a remaining oil content that could be recovered. In this work, PKM coming from a mechanical pressing extraction system with an initial oil content between 7 to 8% (wt.) was treated with subcritical water
