Rice bran oil (RBO) is obtained through extraction of rice bran which is a by-product of the rice milling industries. There are several techniques used for the extraction of the RBO, but solvent extraction using hexane is the most popular used conventional method for commercial extraction.
Is rice bran a food waste?
Rice bran is a food waste widely produced all over the world. Rice bran can be valorized through green extraction techniques to produce oil. Ultrasound-assisted extraction reduces the rice bran oil extraction time. The ultrasounds permit to lower the environmental impacts of the oil extraction.
Is rice bran oil a solventless extraction method?
This review has highlighted that despite the efficiency in the extraction of rice bran oil, some solvents are toxic. The future direction should therefore focus on green extraction methods in order to address the need for environmental sustainability. The solventless methods or the methods that use water as a solvent are therefore encouraged.
