Extraction of oil from tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus L.) with supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2).
Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was used to extract oil from tiger nuts and the physicochemical properties and the impact of extraction conditions [i.e., temperature (40 °C–80 °C), pressure (20–40 MPa) and time (60–360 min)] on the oil yield were studied. The response surface analysis results...
