Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction of flaxseed oil was performed and effects of process parameters including particle size (mean particle diameter <0.85-0.92 mm), solvent flow rate (2-4 g/min), pressure (40-60 MPa) and temperature (50-70 degrees C) were investigated. The broken and intact cells (BIC) model was used for mass transfer modeling of the extraction of flaxseed oil with SC-CO2 successfully. Extraction of flaxseed oil was divided into two periods as first (fast) and second (slow) extraction periods. Great part of the flaxseed oil was extracted in the first period and a very small amount was extracted in the second period. Decreasing the particle size increased the amount of released (free) oil. Increasing the pressure, temperature and flow rate also caused slight increases in the released oil amounts. Increase in the solvent flow rate, pressure and temperature increased the extraction rate in the first period within the range of experiments. The fluid phase mass transfer coefficient (k(f)a) varied between 0.38 and 2.32 min(-1) and the solid phase mass transfer coefficient (k(s)a) varied between 0.5 x 10(-3) and 6.7 x 10(-3) min(-1).

Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of hazelnut oil
Ozkal, SG; Salgin, U; Yener, Meryem Esra (2005-07-01)
Solubility of hazelnut oil in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was determined at 15-60MPa, and 40-60 degrees C. The crossover pressure of hazelnut oil was between 15 and 30MPa. The solubility increased with pressure, but increased with temperature above the crossover pressure. Hazelnut particles (1-2 mm) were extracted at 30-60MPa, and 40-60 degrees C with SC-CO2 flow rate of 2 ml/min. Extraction occurred in two periods. The released oil on the surface of particles was extracted in the fast extraction ...

Özkal, Sami Gökhan; Yener, Meryem Esra; Department of Food Engineering (2004)
The purpose of this research was to determine the solubility of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) oil in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2), effects of parameters (particle size, solvent flow rate, pressure, temperature and co-solvent (ethanol) concentration) on extraction yield and to investigate the possibility of fractionation. Solubility, increased with pressure and increased with temperature above the crossover pressure, which was found between 200 and 300 bar, and decreased with temperature below the c...

Ozkal, SG; Yener, Meryem Esra; Bayindirli, L (2005-01-01)
Response surface methodology was used to determine the effects of solvent flow rate (2, 3 and 4 g/min), pressure (30, 37.5 and 45 MPa), temperature (40, 50 and 60 degrees C), and co-solvent concentration (0, 1.5 and 3 wt% ethanol) on oil yield of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernel oil in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). All the parameters had significant effects on oil yield as well as the interactions between solvent flow rate and pressure, and between pressure and temperature. Oil yield increased ...
Mass transfer modeling of apricot kernel oil extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide
Ozkal, SG; Yener, Meryem Esra; Bayindirli, L (2005-09-01)
Effects of process parameters on extraction of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernel oil with supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) were investigated. The parameters included particle size (mean particle diameter < 0.425-1.5 mm), solvent flow rate (1-5 g/min), pressure (300-600 bar), temperature (40-70 degrees C) and co-solvent concentration (up to 3.0 wt.% ethanol). The model of broken and intact cells represented the apricot kernel oil extraction well. Grinding was necessary to release the oil from intact ...
