  • Which solvent is used in soybean oil production?
  • Solvent extraction and expelling are the main processes used in soybean oil production. Hexane is currently the leading solvent in extraction , . This solvent has a high solubility for oil extraction, availability, low price, low boiling point, and heat of vaporization .
  • How to extract soybean oil?
  • Soybean oil can be obtained by expelling or using an organic solvent. Although, the employment of solvent will always follow the expelling to increase lipid extraction yield .
  • Could ethyl acetate be a solvent for soybean oil extraction?
  • Thus, considering the higher extractability of TAG, applicability for membrane-augmented solvent recycling process, and lower latent heat, ethyl acetate could be a potential solvent for soybean oil extraction.
  • How to extract soybean oil from ethyl acetate and hexane?
  • To obtain the maximum yield of soybean oil extraction for ethyl acetate, 1-butanol, and hexane, the Soxhlet extractions were performed, whereas around 5 grams of soya flakes were extracted with 150 mL of each solvent for 4 hours in a Soxhlet apparatus (MA491/6, Marconi, Brazil).
  • Is ethanol a promising solvent for soybean oil extraction?
  • The experimental results were briefly compared with hexane, once this is the solvent industrially used, and ethanol, for being a promising solvent for soybean oil extraction, using the methodologies of solvent selection of Hansen and the prediction of ln (IDAC) using the COSMO-SAC theory.
  • How do you remove soy oil from soybean oil?
  • The most promising are (a) extraction by an amidine switchable solvent that can then be removed from the soy oil by carbonated water and (b) extraction by a moderately hydrophilic solvent that can then be removed from the oil by water.
