  • Why is camelina a promising industrial crop?
  • Camelina is considered a promising industrial crop due to its high oil content and high harvested residue yield. Its valorization should be based on full exploitation of its whole biomass in a biorefinery, as this will give high-added values to its oil, meal, and straw.
  • Is Camelina sativa a good oil crop?
  • Camelina sativa, an allohexaploid oil crop in the Brassicaceae family, has garnered attention for its relatively high oil yield, short generation time, stress resistance, and low resource requirements (Yuan and Li, 2020 ). Increasing seed oil content is one of the primary targets for improving camelina productivity (Marisol Berti etal ., 2016 ).
  • What are the main products of Camelina seed processing?
  • The major products of processing Camelina seeds are the crude oil and the remaining seed residues (press cake, meal). The crude oil is filtered to remove solids before moving on to the final refining.
  • Why is Camelina oil a suitable biodiesel feedstock?
  • Camelina oil is a suitable biodiesel feedstock due to several factors. It has a high plant yield, high net energy ratio, and low oil production cost (Patil et al., 2009). Additionally, it contains high seed oil content, high fraction of unsaturated acids. However, its high amounts of glucosinolates and erucic acid limit its use as food (Waraich et al., 2013).
