Green solvents and technologies for oil extraction from oilseeds
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
In comparison, solvent extraction with hexane (the primary solvent used worldwide) will remove all but about ½% of residual oil, uses less horse power, and requires less maintenance. It is relatively efficient and reliable, and this is one reason why solvent extraction is the primary means of separating large tonnages of oil from protein meal.
Recent advances in green soybean oil extraction: A review
The extraction of soybean oil and free fatty acids was evaluated using ethanol with different hydration levels (from anhydrous to 5.98 wt%) by Toda et al. [29]. It was found that the increase in water content suppresses soybean oil extraction and increases the free fatty acids content.
Hexane oil extraction Techno-economic analysis (SuperPro Designer) model. According to the TEA model of soybean based biodiesel production established by Haas et al. (2006), 192.28 million kg/year of soybean input is set the referred scenario and scale for time-piece and different capacities studies. Additionally, this capacity is a common
Hexane elimination from soybean oil by continuous packed tower
Hexane elimination is the most energy-consuming step in the industrial extraction of soybean oil. It utilizes three sets of equipment: two evaporation stages in series followed by a stripper at a pressure of about 0.07 bar. The final hexane residue in the oil is about 1000 ppm. We propose an alternative to the present process for hexane elimination, based on the extraction of the soybean oil
An extraction of soybean flakes with hexane at 60 °C was used as a control. Morpholine at 25 °C is comparable to hexane at 60 °C for extracting soybean oil from flaked soybeans . The extraction occurs slightly more slowly when using morpholine, but this could easily be due to the difference in extraction temperatures.
Environmental impact assessment of soybean oil
Among these three oil extraction processes, the hexane extraction has the lowest GHG emissions about 0.31 kg CO 2 and 0.47 g CH 4 emitted per 1 kg of soybean oil production (Fig. 11 a). This also indicates that the hexane extraction is the most energy efficient approach for oil extraction although large amounts of steam are required for desolvenization.
A ground-breaking initiative aimed at enhancing Ghana's soybean production and addressing food and nutrition security challenges was launched today at an event attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Hon. Dr Bryan Acheampong, the Ambassador of Japan, H.E. Mochizuki Hisanobu, FAO Representative in Ghana, Yurdi Yasmi and key stakeholders. The initiative is funded by the Government of
The forward and backward transport processes in the AOT/hexane reversed
The forward extraction experiments were carried out using an aqueous phase containing 0.25 g. ml −1 of soybean flour in a 50 ml stoppered conical flask. 30 ml of the organic phase (AOT/hexane) was added with an already well determined water content (W 0 4–21), which consisted of a fixed KCl concentration and pH value, were mixed and shaken at 250 rpm for 30 min in a water bath at 40 ° C
The oil content of canola was found in range of 21.08–36.44, and 25.12–40.38 % for hexane and ethyl acetate, respectively. The heating values of oil extracted from all oilseeds using hexane and ethyl acetate were found in the range of 38.04–39.98 and 37.98–39.37 MJ/kg, respectively.
