Efficiency of ethanol and hexane extraction of sunflower oil from seeds of plants inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense and fertilized with sewage sludge
Abstract:Helianthus annuuss L. is an annual oilseed crop that grows well in various types of soil. Sunflower oil can be used for several purposes, including human consumption, biodiesel production, and as an ingredient in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products. Sewage sludge application can provide essential nutrients for plant development. This study aimed to determine the efficiency of ethanol and hexane in extracting sunflower oil and assess the effects of sewage sludge application and inoculation with … Show more
