  • How is corn germ isolated from starch?
  • During the wet milling process, the germ is isolated from the starch using cyclone separators, washed, and dried. The dried germ contains about 50% oil, in which the oil constitutes about 85% of the total amount of oil present in the corn.
  • What is solvent extraction of corn germ?
  • Solvent extraction of corn germ is the process of greater industrial use because it allows the effective extraction of practically all the corn oil leaving a defatted germ meal with less than 1% residual oil.
  • How much oil does Afghanistan produce a year?
  • Afghanistan has estimated reserves of 1,908 million barrels of crude oil + 59 trillion cm of natural gas + 667 million barrels of liquid gas. However, the country produces only 8,000 barrels of oil and 59 billion cm of gas per year. To compensate for this lack of domestic production, Afghanistan imported more than 4 million MTs of oil in 2014.
  • What is corn germ oil?
  • Most of the commercial corn oil is extracted from the germ and this is commonly known as ¡°corn germ oil.¡± The germ from wet-milling operations (see Chapter 18) is recovered with up to 50% oil, which must be quickly processed because of its low microbiological and chemical stability.
  • What is the process of industrialization of corn oil?
  • The process of industrialization of corn oil, in general, is divided into two main stages: the extraction of crude oil which also yields a corn oil cake coproduct and the subsequent refining of the crude oil.
  • How is corn germ oil extracted?
  • In most industries, corn germ oil is extracted by pre-pressing and solvent to improve the yield of corn germ oil . Recent study demonstrated that the corn germ oil extracted by supercritical CO 2 could improve the antioxidant capacity of oil without lowering the profile of fatty acids .
