PDF | Groundnut oil extraction involves removing oil content of the groundnut seed.

How does the concentration of enzyme affect oil recovery from groundnuts?

The concentration of enzyme was varied to check the oil yield respectively. The experimental results showed that the oil yield increased with the increase in concentration of enzyme. The enzyme enhances the oil recovery from the groundnuts. Fig 14: The concentration of enzyme was varied by keep other parameters constants.
