abstract

black nightshade is a weed plant that grows abundantly in most parts of iran. in this study, central composite response surface method to investigate the effect of temperature 35-55 °c and pressures 170-350 bar during the dynamic time of 120 min, the particle size of 150 microns and flow rate of 3 liters per minute on the efficiency of oil extracted from the fruits of black nightshade and optimizing operation of the extraction process using supercritical carbon dioxide was used. extraction with an organic solvent hexane was chosen as a comparison. based on the results, operating parameters including both pressure and temperature and their quadratic effects as well as the interaction between two parameter significant effect on the rate of extraction of oil(p<0.01). moisture content on a dry matter of was achieved %66. optimal operating conditions including temperature 35.2 °c and pressure of 170 bar and the extraction rate was obtained %12 under these conditions. the average rate of extraction for supercritical fluid extraction method and soxhlet extraction were determined 4.02 and 4.06 percent, respectively.

Extraction/fractionation and Deacidification of Wheat Germ Oil Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Wheat germ oil was obtained by mechanical pressing using a small-scale screw press and by supercritical extraction in a pilot plant. With this last method, different pressures and temperatures were tested and the tocopherol concentration in the extract was monitored during extraction. Then supercritical extracted oil as well as commercial pressed oil were deacidified in a countercurrent column ...

Optimisation of Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Astaxanthin from Penaeus Monodon Waste Using Ethanol-modified Carbon Dioxide

Some studies demonstrated that astaxanthin surpasses the antioxidant benefits of beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, canthaxanthin, vitamin C, and vitamin E. Penaeus monodon (Tiger shrimp) is one of the most valuable traded crustacean products in which astaxanthin can be found in its by-products. The extraction of thermolabile compound like carotenoids at lower temperatures through supercritical carbon ...
