Background: The alcohol-assisted aqueous extraction processing (AAEP) of oil has many advantages such as no need for demulsification and relative low cost compared with enzymatic aqueous extraction processing (EAEP). Three kinds of thermal pretreatments including dry-heating, wet-heating and soak-heating followed by the AAEP of rapeseed oil were investigated.
Results: Both soak-heating and wet-heating had a higher contribution rate to oil yield than dry-heating due to the enhancement of heat transfer rate owing to the high moisture content in the rapeseed cells. However, oil from soak-heated rapeseeds showed a much lower level on peroxide value (0.41 mmol kg ) than that of wet-heated rapeseeds (5.23 mmol kg ). In addition, transmission electron microscopy images illustrated that promoting effects of soak-heating and wet-heating on oil release were attributed to the coalescence of oil bodies. A relative low concentration of alcohol solution as an extraction medium, the highest oil recovery of 92.77% was achieved when ground rapeseeds (mean particle size: 21.23 µm) were treated with 45% (v/v) alcohol for 2 h at 70 °C and pH 9.0. Both the acid value and the peroxide value are lower than the commercial oil produced by extrusion and hexane extraction. Furthermore, the oil produced from AAEP also had higher content of tocopherols and lower content of trans-fatty acids than the commercial oil.
Conclusion: AAEP of oil from soak-heated rapeseeds is a promising alternative to conventional oil extraction methods. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

The strong solid-liquid interaction leads to the complicated occurrence characteristics of shale oil. However, the solid-liquid interface interaction and its controls of the occurrence state of shale oil are poorly understood on the molecular scale. In this work, the adsorption behavior and occurrence state of shale oil in pores of organic/inorganic matter under reservoir conditions were investigated by using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations.

Understanding the interfacial interaction mechanisms between oil and minerals is of vital importance in the applications of petroleum production and environmental protection. In this work, the interactions of dodecane with mica and calcite in aqueous media were investigated by using the drop probe technique based on atomic force microscopy. For the dodecane-mica interactions, the electrical double layer (EDL) repulsion dominated in 10 mM NaCl solution, and a higher pH facilitated the detachment of dodecane.

Aerogels hold great potential in thermal insulation, catalytic supports, adsorption, and separation, due to their low density, high porosity, and low thermal conductivity. However, their inherent mechanical fragility and limited control functionality pose substantial challenges that hinder their practical use. In this study, a strategy is developed for the fabrication of cross-linked aramid nanofiber aerogels (cANFAs) by combining internanofiber surface cross-linking with ice-templating techniques.

Controlled fragrance release at the right time, in the right place, depending on the context remains a technological challenge in the areas of psychophysiology, biochemistry and the entertainment industry. In this study, we demonstrate how bulk poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) templates may effectively take up and retain volatile organic compounds of essential orange oil in the original form without significantly shifting the scent profile. This is done depending on the sampling approach that follows a controllable and slow fragrance release maintaining a constant ratio of volatile compounds in a template-thickness, temperature and time-dependent manner.

With freshwater resources becoming scarce worldwide, mariculture is a promising avenue to sustain aquaculture development, especially by incorporating brackish and saline groundwater (GW) use into fish farming. A 75-day rearing trial was conducted to evaluate fish growth, immune response, overall health, and water quality of Chelon ramada cultured in brackish GW and fed on a basal diet (BD) augmented with rosemary oil (RO) or RO + zymogen forte™ (ZF) as an anti-flatulent. Five treatments were administrated in triplicate: T1: fish-fed BD without additives (control group); T2: fish-fed BD + 0.
