A parametric investigation of castor oil (Ricinus comminis L) extraction using supercritical carbon dioxide via response surface optimization
The optimal conditions of oil yield from castor (Ricinus communis L) seed using supercritical CO2 as extracting solvent were studied. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to show explicitly the influence of the process parameters such as temperature, pressure and the CO2 flow rate on the...
