  • Can hexane be used for soybean oil extraction?
  • In contrast, some advanced technologies such as enzyme-assisted, supercritical fluids, deep eutectic solvent, and ionic liquids seem less efficient than ordinary processes using hexane for soybean oil extraction. The best alternatives for replacing hexane seem to be ethanol, ethyl acetate, the terpenes, 2-MeTHF, and CPME.
  • Why is the soybean price a critical factor for hexane extraction?
  • Material cost takes up about 44% of total operating costs in a facility producing 4 million kg of soybean oil and increases to over 90% of total operating costs in 173.22 and 415.73 million kg of soybean oil production facilities. Therefore, the soybean price is concluded as a critical factor for the hexane extraction process. 3.2.2. Utility costs
  • Can green solvents be used in soybean oil extraction?
  • The application of green solvents in soybean oil extraction is reviewed. Hansen parameters and COSMO-based models can serve as a solvent selection tool. Direct substitution of hexane with green solvents is the most promising alternative. Kinetic models and the thermodynamic assessment are analyzed comprehensively.
  • How n hexane is used in oil extraction?
  • The conventional technology used for oil extraction from oilseeds is by solvent extraction. In solvent extraction, n -hexane is used as a solvent for its attributes such as simple recovery, non-polar nature, low latent heat of vaporization (330 kJ/kg) and high selectivity to solvents.
