Optimization of Solvent Extraction of Oil From Wild Bush Mango Seed (Irvingia
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Four operating parameters of the solvent extraction of oil from seed of wild bush mango plant (irvingia gabonensis) using normal hexane as the solvent have been optimized by a composite design. A linear model was developed, and validated with diagnostic plots. The model was optimized numerically and the optimum conditions established were; temperature of 40 size of 2.05MM, time of 4hours and solvent volume of 300mls at a constant value of the sample dosage of 10grams. The predicted oil yield was 42.4167% at 0.767 desirability. There was a good correlation between the predicted and actual values.
