  • 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.
  • What is the future of corn oil?
  • The future of corn oil is promising because more than 1 billion tons of corn kernels are harvested throughout the globe and the extracted oil has good oxidative stability and excellent nutritional attributes and can be further processed into value-added ingredients and food. J. Supercrit.
  • Is corn oil a good feedstock for biodiesel production?
  • Moreover, use of corn oil as a feedstock for biodiesel production as well as in various other products such as soaps, pharmaceuticals, paints, insecticides, etc. is also fueling the global demand for corn oil (Techsciresearch, 2017).
  • Why is corn oil a regenerative product?
  • Corn oil is widely recognized by the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to its regenerative properties resulting from its high unsaponifiable content. In addition, its high content of linoleic acid enhances restructuration and reinforcement of the skin barrier, maintaining the levels of hydration of the epidermis (Moreau, 2005).
  • What is corn oil used for?
  • The application of corn oil to products of the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries is determined by its physical and chemical properties. However, this raw material as well as other vegetable oils has limited application in its unaltered form due to its particular composition of fatty acids and triacylglycerols.
  • How is corn oil extracted?
  • For extraction of corn oil, compressed carbon dioxide is fed in a SFE reactor, which contains the flaked germ, with temperature close to 50°C and pressure between 351 and 562 kg/cm 2. After depressurizing the system, the oil is collected in a reservoir.
