  • How is rice bran oil extracted?
  • Rice bran (RB) oil extraction was performed by applying renewable solvents like ethanol and ethyl acetate. To assess the interaction of these solvents with the oil, the UNIFAC model was chosen to determine the infinite dilution activity coefficient. Soxhlet extraction was utilized to determine the maximum possible yield.
  • Is rice bran oil a solventless extraction method?
  • This review has highlighted that despite the efficiency in the extraction of rice bran oil, some solvents are toxic. The future direction should therefore focus on green extraction methods in order to address the need for environmental sustainability. The solventless methods or the methods that use water as a solvent are therefore encouraged.
  • Can n-hexane be used to extract oil from rice bran?
  • The existing solvent extraction method employs n-hexane as the most viable solvent for the extraction of oil from rice bran. But the high cost and scarce availability of n-hexane resulted in uneconomical extraction of rice bran oil.
  • What is enzyme assisted extraction of rice bran oil?
  • Enzyme assisted extraction of rice bran oil and their corresponding yields. The advantages of enzyme assisted extraction technique compared to conventional solvent extraction methods includes reduced time of extraction, minimized solvent usage and increased yield and quality of product.
  • Does ethanol affect the extraction process of rice bran oil?
  • On the other hand, the influence of temperature is minimised with high levels of water in the ethanol. Summary Vegetable oils can be extracted using ethanol as solvent. The main goal of this work was to evaluate the ethanol performance on the extraction process of rice bran oil.
  • Can rice bran oil be used as a functional food ingredient?
  • This article summarizes the stabilization and extraction processes of rice bran oil from rice bran using different techniques (including solvent extraction, microwaving, ohmic heating, supercritical fluid extraction, and ultrasonication) and suggestions are provided for future applications of RBO as a functional food ingredient.
