Rubber Seed Oil Extraction Process

However the seeds are wasted in the rubber plantations annually even though the extractable oil has potential technical applications.

Rubber seed oil extraction process.

If the full potentials of the oil are to be realized there is need to have a data base information on the oil extraction process and. And extracting with volatile solvents employed in large scale. Rendering used with animal products and oleaginous fruits. Of course this process of course requires a lot of manufacturing cost.

Rubber seed oil extraction was carried using n n hexane and isopropanol. Rubber seed oil rso and its derivatives heated rubber seed oil hrso and alkyd resins were evaluated as binders in air drying solvent and waterborne coatings. The biodiesel production from rubber seed oil used two. Rubber seed oil is oil extracted from the seeds of rubber trees in the latex manufacturing process rubber seeds are not historically collected and commercialized.

Rubber seed oil is a potential source for biodiesel production. Hrso was obtained by heating rso. Citation needed palmitic c16 0 0 2. Present work focuses on oil extraction from rubber seed by mechanical pressing method and kinetic study of acid esterification process.

This work intends to focus on the first two parameters. The oil taking process from the waste rubber seed is done by. Rubber seeds from the rubber tree hevea brasiliensis are in abundance in nigeria from which non edible oil could be obtained. To obtain the vegetable oil by conventional method the seed is pressed by mechanical process or extraction with chemical solvent.

Quality of the oil was affected by choice of solvent used for the extraction. Recent analysis shows that rubber seed oil contained the following fatty acids. For seed oil extraction notably solvent extraction cap acity effects of solvent on oil properties process safety solvent volatility and stability and economic consider ations. Thus the oil content remained in the waste rubber seed is still plentiful.

Rubber seed contains rubber seed oil. Rubber seeds were deshelled dried crushed and pressed in a mechanical press. N hexane gave the higher oil yield 63 14 wt than isopropanol 56 7 wt. Stearic c18 0 8 7.

Linoleic c18 2 39 6. The quadratic model developed for the oil extraction process had r 2 of 0 9990. Mechanical pressing for oil bearing seeds and nuts. Oleic c18 1 24 6.

The oil further pretreated by degumming process. Oil extraction isolation of oil from animal by products fleshy fruits such as the olive and palm and oilseeds such as cottonseed sesame seed soybeans and peanuts oil is extracted by three general methods.
