Oil and protein recovery from corn germ: Extraction
Supercritical fluid extraction of corn germ oil: study of the influence of process parameters on the extraction yield and oil quality J. Supercrit. Fluids,72 ( 2012 ),pp. 270 277,10.1016/j.supflu.2012.10.001
A More Efficient Solution For Processing Corn Germ
With the proper oilseed processing system in place, corn milling facilities can squeeze additional profits out of this would-be byproduct by literally squeezing the oil from the germ. But because corn germ can be notoriously tough to process, it requires the right extraction equipment to press oil efficiently to get optimal returns.
Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil
The oil distribution in three phases (free oil, water phase and sediment phase) of untreated, steam exploded and citric acid soaked-steam exploded corn germ are demonstrated in Fig. 2. Compared steam exploded corn germ (1.3 MPa, 30 s) with untreated sample, free oil yield raised from 76.33 % to 88.51 %, meanwhile residual oil content declined 2.88 ...
Corn Processing - Crown Iron Works
The first step of processing corn germ from wet milling or dry milling is to properly prepare the seed for oil removal. The seed is delivered clean; additional cleaning with a magnet and screener may be done to remove any impurities or fines. For dry-milled germ, the seed is conditioned, flaked and sent to solvent extraction.
Biodiesel production from corn oil: A review
Oil yields from wet-milled corn germ, dry-milled corn germ and corn fiber by n-hexane extraction are 40–50%, 20–25% and 2–3% (based on a dry weight)
Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
Oil extraction. Corn germ oil was extracted from milled corn germ using diluted aqueous ethanol as solvent. Batch extractions were carried out in 500 mL glass reactor vessels which were series connected with a constant temperature water bath machine (MP-501 A, Shanghai Yiheng Scientific Instrument Co., Ltd., China).
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
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

A process for the aqueous enzymatic extraction of corn oil from dry milled corn germ and enzymatic wet milled corn germ (E-Germ) J Am Oil Chem Soc. 2009; 86:469–474. doi:
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
