How can industrial corn processing improve biodiesel production?
Oily co¨Cproducts of industrial corn processing are promising biodiesel feedstocks. ¡°Green¡± oil extraction methods will improve corn oil recovery. Simpler, more efficient and energy¨Csaving corn-based biodiesel technology is needed. The integrated reactor/separation process of biodiesel production is more efficient.
What are the methods used for extraction of maize (Zea mays L) germ oil?
Methods used for extraction of maize ( Zea mays L.) germ oil – a review The composition of corn oil obtained by the alcohol extraction of ground corn Sequential extraction processing of flaked whole corn: alternative corn fractional technology for ethanol production Corn oil production process.
Can corn be used in oil production?
The potential of corn for this application lies primarily in the oil-containing co-products of industrial corn processing, such as corn germ and DDGS or CDS from starch and ethanol production.
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.
