Extraction of ß- carotene from palm oil mesocarp using sub-critical r134a

Sub-critical extraction of palm oil from palm mesocarp using R134a solvent was conducted via the dynamic mode to investigate the ability of R134a to extract ß-carotene. The yield of palm oil and the solubility of ß-carotene were investigated at 40, 60 and 80 °C and pressure range from 45–100 bar. Th...
