Extraction modeling, kinetics, and thermodynamics of solvent extraction of Irvingia gabonensis kernel oil, for possible industrial application

Engineering Reports, Volume 3, Issue 4, April 2021., 2021
The temperature, time, and particle size effects on Irvingia gabonensis kernel oil (IGKO) yield, as well as the kinetics and thermodynamics parameters, were investigated. The physicochemical properties of IGKO indicated that viscosity, acidity, dielectric strength, flash, and pour points were 19.37 mm2 s−1, 5.18 mg KOH g−1, 25.83 kV, 285°C, and 17°C ...
