Rubber Seed Oil Extraction Process

Mechanical pressing for oil bearing seeds and nuts.

Rubber seed oil extraction process.

Rubber seeds were deshelled dried crushed and pressed in a mechanical press. The oil further pretreated by degumming process. Hrso was obtained by heating rso. Citation needed palmitic c16 0 0 2.

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. Quality of the oil was affected by choice of solvent used for the extraction. 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. Oleic c18 1 24 6.

Rubber seed oil extraction was carried using n n hexane and isopropanol. Solvent extraction capacity and solvent ef. The biodiesel production from rubber seed oil used two. Rubber seed oil is a potential source for biodiesel production.

Rendering used with animal products and oleaginous fruits. Stearic c18 0 8 7. 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. Recent analysis shows that rubber seed oil contained the following fatty acids.

The oil taking process from the waste rubber seed is done by. Present work focuses on oil extraction from rubber seed by mechanical pressing method and kinetic study of acid esterification process. Rubber seed contains rubber seed oil. The quadratic model developed for the oil extraction process had r 2 of 0 9990.

In the present study non edible seed oils from underutilized nigerian nig800 clonal rubber seeds were extracted using solvent method to obtain a yield of 43 wt after extraction for 1 h using 0. Thus the oil content remained in the waste rubber seed is still plentiful. Rubber seeds from the rubber tree hevea brasiliensis are in abundance in nigeria from which non edible oil could be obtained. However the seeds are wasted in the rubber plantations annually even though the extractable oil has potential technical applications.

N hexane gave the higher oil yield 63 14 wt than isopropanol 56 7 wt. 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. To obtain the vegetable oil by conventional method the seed is pressed by mechanical process or extraction with chemical solvent. In the oil extraction process using mechanical methods around 30 rendemen is obtain while the oil content in the rubber seed is around 50 60.

This work intends to focus on the first two parameters. Of course this process of course requires a lot of manufacturing cost.
