  • How is oil extracted from rapeseed?
  • Conventionally, oil extraction from rapeseed is achieved by screw-pressing, either by expeller pressing (full-pressing) or by pre-pressing of the seeds, followed by solvent extraction. Oil contents in the resulting press cakes are in the range of 5?%?10?% (full-press) or 15?%?18?% (pre-press) ( Kemper, 2005 ).
  • Is rapeseed defatting suitable for direct solvent extraction?
  • Due to its high oil content of up to 50 % in the seed, rapeseed defatting is not suitable for direct solvent extraction ( Unger, 2011 ). Conventionally, oil extraction from rapeseed is achieved by screw-pressing, either by expeller pressing (full-pressing) or by pre-pressing of the seeds, followed by solvent extraction.
  • Can rapeseed oil be extracted from water ethanol & ethyl acetate?
  • The use of solvent mixtures such as water/ethanol/ethyl acetate was investigated for the extraction of rapeseed oil, obtaining the maximum rate of oil yield (32.35 mg/mm) with the mixture containing 9.17%, 6.61% and 84.17% of water, ethanol and ethyl acetate, respectively [ 107 ].
  • Where is rapeseed produced?
  • Crops with yellow flowers are known as rapeseed ( B. napus) in European countries and are called canola in the United States. They are produced in various countries including Europe, Canada, China, India, Russia, Turkey, and northern areas of Pakistan . Rapeseed oil contributes 20% in overall oil production worldwide .
