Annatto‐Derived Carotenoids (Bixin and Norbixin) As Biodiesel Antioxidants: Characterization and Effects on Oxidative Stability (Rancimat and PetroOXY)

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
Annatto‐derived bixin and norbixin were characterized and evaluated as natural antioxidants for soybean biodiesel. Their antioxidant performance and effects on oxidative stability were assessed using DPPH, Rancimat, and PetroOXY methods. ABSTRACT The increasing use of eco‐friendly fuels is increasing the production of biodiesel but soybean biodiesel is

Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium Data for Refined Olive Pomace Oil + Oleic Acid + Ethanol + Water Systems: Application to Solvent Deacidification

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents the first experimental liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for quaternary systems composed of refined olive pomace oil, oleic acid, ethanol, and water at 303.15 K. These data are essential for the design and optimization of solvent‐based deacidification processes, particularly for oils with high free fatty acid (FFA ...
