Rice bran is a byproduct of rice processing which was generally used for animal feed. Rice bran oil could be used as raw material in the fields of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food oil. The purpose of this research is to extract rice bran into oil as a raw material for Trioxolane using n-Hexane solvent and purify the oil by adsorption using bentonite. Trioxolent compounds were obtained from ozonated fatty acids. Variable extraction time 2, 3 and 4 hours and use of bentonite 2.5, 5 and 7.5 grams from 10 ml of crude rice bran oil. The results obtained an oil yield of each variable extraction time 2, 3, and 4 hours respectively - the value is 8.4, 10, 11%. The optimum operating conditions were obtained by extraction time of 4 hours and refining 75% bentonite. The characteristics of rice bran oil has a moisture content of 8%, an acidic value of 67% mg NaOH/g sample, a peroxide number of 21 mgrek/g sample, an iod number of 46 mgI2 / g sample and the results of fatty acid analysis using GCMS is 33.5 % oleic acid, 24.8% Linoleic acid, 32.6% Palmitic acid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
