This work focuses on the study of the oil extraction yield from castor seed using three different seed conditions: whole, minced and bare endosperm. Taguchi design was used to determine the contribution of the following parameters: seed condition, seed load in the extractor, temperature, and pressure. It was proved that it is necessary to introduce the whole seed and that the presence of the pe...

In this study, acid-catalyzed hot-water extraction of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-rich lipids from Aurantiochytrium sp. was performed, and its yield-enhancing effects were investigated. The total fatty acid content of the Aurantiochytrium sp. was 482.5mg/g cell, of which 141.7mg/g cell (29.4% of total fatty acids) was DHA. The lipid-extraction yield by acid-catalyzed hot-water treatment was comp...

Microwave assisted extraction (MAE) tech-nique was employed for the extraction of pectin from black mulberry (Morus nigra) pomace in this research. The effects of process variables namely microwave power (300-900 watt), irradiation time (10-30 min) and liquid to solid ratio (15-30 mL/g) on the yield, degree of esterification (DE) and galacturonic acid content (GalA) of pectin were investigated ...

Alginates being depolymerized during their alkaline extraction, reducing extraction time could help producing higher rheological quality alginates. The purpose of the present work is to study fresh Laminaria digitata destructuration during alkaline extraction and its link to extraction kinetics. Both alginate extraction yield and mean diameter of algae particles were followed for different valu...

abstract the increasing of yield per unit area is usually achievable by improving the soil fertility level through using (chemical) fertilizers. the purpose of the present research was to evaluate the 6 extraction methods including olsen, morgan, ammonium bicarbonate-dtpa, colwel, bray and mehlich 3 in order to specify a suitable extractant(s) for estimating available phosphorus through using 2...

the alginate was extracted with six different methods from iran south seacoast algae, sargassum sp, and the percentage yield of alginate was determined. we divided our methods to two groups including acidic extraction and non-acidic. in acidic methods, hcl and h 2 so 4 were used as a detergent in extraction process and cacl 2 was exerted in non-acidic treatments. all treatments compared with ea...

abstract irregular extraction from agricultural wells around parishan lake, moreover fall of groundwater surface and water salty, would affect the level of lake water and move lake water into wells. in this study we have evaluated the externalities of extraction from agricultural wells around the lake. therefore feedback effect is considered between agricultural activity around the lake and lev...

Vanillin was extracted from vanilla beans using pretreatment with cellulase to produce enzymatic hydrolysis, and response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the processing parameters of this extraction. The effects of heating time, enzyme quantity and temperature on enzymatic extraction of vanillin were evaluated. Extraction yield (mg/g) was used as the response value. The result...
