- How much watermelon seed oil can be extracted?
- According to Table 1, 43% of sampled watermelon seeds oil was extracted. This indicates that about 43% of the 523.15 g of watermelon seed can be recovered as oil. Using supercritical extraction to get watermelon oil, [ 15] achieved an oil yield of 52.37 ± 0.7%.
- Can watermelon seed be recovered as oil?
- 523.15 g of watermelon seed can be recovered as oil. Using supercritical extraction to get watermelon oil, [ 15] achieved an oil yield of 52.37 ± 0.7%. Using solvent extraction technique, obtained a yield of 50 ±0.2%, and recorded a yield of 40.0% using Soxhlet extractor.
- Can watermelon seed oil be used as a resource?
- utilization of watermelon seed oil has gained considerable attention in recent years. While the succ ulent flesh of the fruit is relished, its seeds have been habitually discarded as waste. However, research has unveiled the bioactive compounds present in these seeds, elevating watermelon seed oil in to a valuable resource material.
