  • What technologies are used in rice bran oil extraction?
  • New combined technologies have emerged to improve the efficiency and quality of rice bran oil. These include enzyme-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted water extraction, supercritical and subcritical CO 2 extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, and subcritical fluid technology. All these have broad application prospects . 5.1.1.
  • What is rice bran?
  • Rice bran is a byproduct of the rice milling industry obtained from milling of brown rice to produce white rice. It contains 15%¨C20% of oil. Apart from oil, rice bran is a promising source for proteins, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins, tocopherol, ¦Ã-oryzanol, and phospholipids (Tao, 1989; Houston, 1972; Saunders, 1986).
  • What are the refining processes of rice bran oil?
  • The refining technology of rice bran oil includes degumming, deacidification, dewaxing, etc. as well as the technologies to remaining the bioactive compounds in rice bran oil.
  • Can rice bran be treated with enzymes?
  • Treating rice bran with enzymes is a new oil processing technology. The cell tissue of rice bran is hydrolyzed with protease and then oil is released to achieve the purpose of oil extraction (Hanmoungjai et al. 2001).
  • What are the methods used to extract rice bran oil?
  • Rice bran oil is extracted by pressing or solvent extraction methods, such as supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and enzymatic extraction. There are about 15¨C20% crude oil in rice bran.
  • What are the by-products of rice milling?
  • The by-products generated through various milling steps are husk, bran, germs, and broken rice, and they are usually discarded or used for animal feeds. Bran is the most attractive of these by-products, because even though it represents only 9% of the rice weight, it contains around 65% of the nutrients of the whole rice grain [4, 5].
