Can ethanol extract oil from sunflower collets?

Ethanol extracts less crystallizable waxes and more tocopherols and phospholipids. Ethanol showed great ability of extracting sugar, mainly raffinose and sucrose. The ethanolic extraction of oil from sunflower collets was studied and compared with previous data where hexane was used as extraction solvent.

Which solvent is used to extract oil from cottonseed?

Isopropanol and ethanol are the most promising solvents for the oil extraction from cottonseed ( Abraham et al., 1988, Hron et al., 1994 ), sunflower seed ( Sineiro et al., 1998) and soybean ( Baker and Sullivan, 1983, Rittner, 1992 ).

Can ethanol be used as an alternative solvent to hexane in oil extraction?

Oil effective diffusivities were 9.94 10 ?10 at 50 ¡ãC and 3.11 10 ?9 m 2 /s at 60 ¡ãC. From the point of view of the quality of the obtained products, this work demonstrated the feasibility of using ethanol as an alternative solvent to hexane in the oil extraction from sunflower collets. 1. Introduction

Can ethanol be used as sunflower lecithin?

This confers an interesting property to ethanol: that of providing partially degummed sunflower oil on the one hand, as well as a higher recovery of PL in the other phase (hexane-insoluble fraction). This hexane-insoluble fraction could be refined and used as sunflower lecithin.
