  • Can castor seed oil be used as a raw material?
  • This study involved the extraction of castor seed oil, a non-edible oil, to serve as a raw material for the production of liquid biofuels. The Soxhlet extraction technique proved to be the best method for extracting castor seed oil, yielding the highest amount of extracted oil at 52.45?wt% compared to other methods.
  • Is Castor a viable seed oil extraction method?
  • Castor is one of the essential seed crops. Demand for increasing vegetable oils (edible and non-edible) necessitates developing cost-effective, sustainable, environmentally friendly, and industrially viable seed oil extraction techniques that produce high extraction yield with minimal impact on bioactive quality.
  • How to extract castor seeds?
  • Currently used extraction techniques are supercritical fluid, pulsed electric field, Soxhlet, enzyme-assisted extraction, ultrasound, and microwave-assisted extraction. These methods are efficient and result in rapid extract recovery. Castor seeds are one of the most produced non-edible oil crops in India.
  • How hexane is used to extract oil from castor seeds?
  • The oil extraction The investigation showcased the extraction of oil from castor seeds employing hexane as a solvent through diverse techniques, including maceration extraction, Soxhlet extraction, reflux extraction, and ultrasonic extraction, as depicted in Fig. 2(b).
  • How much oil can be extracted from castor seed?
  • The amount of oil that can be extracted from castor seed depends on various factors, including the planting area, castor plant species, plant age, time of harvest, and extraction process (Fadhil et al., 2017, Madankar et al., 2013, Tan et al., 2023).
  • Can castor seeds be extracted from Sakon Nakhon Province?
  • The scope of this research includes castor seeds extracted from Sakon Nakhon Province. The oil extraction from castor beans in this study used hexane as a solvent, employing four extraction techniques: maceration extraction, Soxhlet extraction, reflux extraction, and ultrasonic extraction.
