Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
An improved aqueous extraction method has been established for extraction of oil from corn germs. This method primarily included steam explosion
Oil and protein recovery from corn germ: Extraction yield
This work aimed the recovery of oil and protein fractions from corn germ (CG) generated as a by-product during flour processing. Several oil extraction techniques were investigated: hexane at room temperature, hexane at 45 C, supercritical carbon dioxide (Sc-CO 2) and Soxhlet with hexane and ethanol. Their influence on oil yield and oil

Corn germ oil extraction with compressed propane compared
The extraction of corn germ oil was evaluated using pressurized propane as solvent in semi-batch process as an alternative approach to organic solvent extraction. The effect of temperature (20, 40, 60 C), pressure (20, 60, 100 bar), particle size and confinement time were studied.

Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
An improved aqueous extraction method has been established for extraction of oil from corn germs. This method primarily included steam explosion pretreatment and aqueous ethanol extraction. Process variables such as steam pressure, resident time, particle size and ethanol concentration were investigated. The highest yield of 93.74 % was obtained when ground steam-exploded corn germ (1.3 MPa
Corn germ oil extraction with compressed propane compared
by extracting wet-milled corn germs at 60 C and 100 bar. The highest extraction yield with propane was 38.4 ± 1.2 wt% at 20 C, 20 bar, 30 min and 0.95 mm particle size.
Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
Introduction. Corn germ is a substantial byproduct of the wet milling and alcohol industry of corn. Corn germ (dry) contains 35?6 % oil, with linoleic acid (C18:2) being the predominant fatty acid (49?1.9 %) and the highest level of tocopherol and phytosterol amongst all vegetable oils, which is a cost-effective resource for healthy nutritious oil.
Biodiesel production from corn oil: A review ScienceDirect
Moreover, recently, corn oil has been used in biodiesel manufacture, especially in combination with ethanol production. Corn oil has an acid value of less than
Supercritical fluid extraction of corn germ oil: Study of the
Highlights Supercritical fluid extraction of corn germ oil at different pressures, temperatures and flow rates has been carried out. Extraction process may be controlled by the solubility of the oil in SC-CO 2 in the first stages of the extraction. When increasing extraction temperature in the range 40?5 C, oils with higher tocopherol content and higher antioxidant activity are obtained
