Study on the microalgal pigments extraction process: Performance of microwave assisted extraction

Microwave Assisted Extraction of Olive Oil Pomace by Acidic Hexane

In this study, Microwave-Assisted Solvent Extraction (MASE) was used to recover oil residues from pomace olive using acidic hexane. Results obtained demonstrated that oil extraction yield increased with time, the amount of acetic acid in hexane and power radiation. For both radiation powers used (170 and 510W), the optimal extraction time and most interesting content of acetic acid in hexan...

Modeling and prediction of extraction profile for microwave-assisted extraction based on absorbed microwave energy.

A modeling technique based on absorbed microwave energy was proposed to model microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of antioxidant compounds from cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) leaves. By adapting suitable extraction model at the basis of microwave energy absorbed during extraction, the model can be developed to predict extraction profile of MAE at various microwave irradiation power (100-600 W) and ...

Microwave-assisted extraction of sulfated polysaccharides

Microwave Assisted Extraction of Phyllanthus amarus

2. Soxhlation: Soxhlet extraction is only required where the desired compound has a limited solubility in the solvent, and the impurity is insoluble in that solvent. If the desired compound has a high solubility in a solvent then a simple filtration can be used to separate the compound from the insoluble substance [1]. In a conventional soxhlet system plant material is placed in thimble-holder,...

Microwave-assisted extraction of lime pectin

Pectin was extracted from lime flavedo, albedo and pulp by employing microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) under pressure. Heating times ranged from 1 to 10min. Optimal time of heating was 3min. Molar mass, viscosity, radius of gyration and hydrated radius were found to decrease with heating time. At 3min heating time, depending on the lime fraction which was extracted, weight average molar mass ...
