  • What is aqueous enzymatic extraction?
  • Aqueous enzymatic extraction (AEE) is a promising method for the simultaneous extraction of oil and protein from oilseeds. The products are of superior quality and highly suited to human consumption. In the extraction process, water containing selected enzymes forms the extraction medium used for incubating the oilseeds.
  • Does enzyme assisted oil extraction improve process economics?
  • This review covers technological aspects of enzyme assisted oil extraction, and explores the quality characteristics of the oils obtained, focussing particularly on recent efforts undertaken to improve process economics by recovering and re-using enzymes.
  • Does aqueous enzymatic extraction increase oil yield?
  • All aqueous enzymatic extractions resulted in higher oil yields than aqueous extractions, and all solvent treatments resulted in higher oil yields than aqueous enzymatic extractions. Total oil as in the skim and cream emulsion. Average oil yield enhancements from three olive species with the use of enzymes at high concentrations.
  • How is soybean oil extracted?
  • Currently, most soybean oil extraction is carried out by direct solvent extraction of uncooked soybean flakes. The use of a petroleum distillate containing about two-thirds n -hexane is typically used in the commercial extraction of soybean oil. Residual oil contents of solvent-extracted soybean meal are <1% .
  • Does enzyme concentration affect free soybean oil yield?
  • Generally, the use of higher enzyme concentration resulted in higher free oil yield. According to Jung et al. (2009), at 25 °C, the use of Protex 6L resulted in higher free soybean oil yield of 96% at 2.5% (w/w) concentration when compared to an 85–89% yield while employing enzyme at 1.25% (w/w).
  • Does soybean flour extract oil and protein from aqueous media?
  • The mechanisms of oil and protein extraction into aqueous media from soybean flour have been determined by Rosenthal et al. . Protein and oil extraction yields were shown to be closely related, with both depending on the extent of cell wall disruption.
