Abstract:
The extraction kinetics of Siberian cocklour fruit oil was investigated. An extraction model, based on the assumption of a second-order mechanism for extraction, was developed to predict the rate constant of leaching, the saturated leaching capacity, and the initial extraction rate with various extraction temperatures. The rate constant is a function of the temperature, and the relation of yield with extect time and temperature was deduced:Ct=t/(1.99×10-5exp(3065/T)+t/(0.003T-0.748)). This study provided a reference for industrial production.
