Exploring alternative solvents to n-hexane for green extraction of lipid from camellia oil cakes

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: emission). Intriguingly, 2-MeOx exhibited the highest diffusion rate at both 25 °C and 55 °C in the extraction kinetic study, which could also extract the highest total phenolic contents (351.6 ± 0.02 mg GAE/kg dw) corresponding to its best oxidative stability. Besides, Hansen solubility modeling could help better understand the dissolving mechanism. 2-MeOx was demonstrated as the optimal alternative bio-based solvent to n-hexane with comparable extractability and selectivity in the CO extraction.
