  • 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.
  • 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 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.
  • Does corn oil need a degumming operation?
  • According to Moreau (2005), the degumming operation of corn oil is mandatory only when the oil will be further refined via physical refining process. Refining can be defined as a set of serial steps for transforming crude oils into edible oils. Basically, there are two types of refining operations, chemical and physical.
  • What is enzymatic extraction of corn oil?
  • The enzymatic extraction of corn oil is especially promising when applied simultaneously with purely mechanical expelled oil because it significantly enhances yield. The aqueous enzymatic method was developed to extract oil from corn germ without hexane or other organic solvents.
  • How do you heat corn germ?
  • If the corn germ has high-oil content, as in the case of the one obtained by wet-milling, the operation will require the use of pressure and heat to disrupt cell walls and break the oil containing spherosomes. In this situation, the germ is heated at 120°C prior to mechanical compression by the expeller.
