“…However, when the TOTOX value was taken into account, only the UAE sample showed a value of 95.08. The saponification value (SV) is a measure of the content of ester bonds and, therefore, is related to the fatty acids that are present in oils or fats (the fatty acids can be either free or esterified) [58]. The SV values of the different samples in this study ranged from 196.08 to 219.75 mg KOH/g.…”

The sinami palm (Oenocarpus mapora H. Karst) is a plant from the South American Amazonia that has great potential for industrial applications in the development of functional foods, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals. In this manuscript, the physicochemical properties, total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of sinami oil that was obtained using four extraction systems, namely expeller press extraction (EPE), cold press extraction (CPE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), were studied and compared. The oxidative stability (OSI) was statistically non-significant in EPE and SFE. The chromatic properties (CIELab) were influenced by the extraction methods and SFE presented high values of L* and a lower content of plant pigments. Ultrasound-assisted extraction showed a higher content of polyphenols and higher antioxidant activity. Different analyses for the evaluation of the physicochemical properties, the content of total polyphenols and antioxidant activity were used to classify sinami oil according to chemometrics using principal component analysis (PCA). For example, the sinami oil that was obtained using each extraction method was in a different part of the plot. In summary, sinami oil is an excellent resource for plant pigments. Additionally, the information that was obtained on the quality parameters in this study provided a good foundation for further studies on the characterization of major and minor compounds.

“…Il existe de nombreuses espèces végétales non alimentaires présentant des caractéristiques souhaitables et prometteuses pour la production de biodiesel [5]. Selon, le Ministère de l'Energie Américain (US-DOE), les critères de sélection des espèces oléagineuses qui sont susceptibles d'être valorisées à des fins de production de biodiesel sont essentiellement les suivants [6] :…”

Le monde, actuellement, est confronté à deux crises majeures ; l’épuisement des ressources énergétiques fossiles accompagné d’une dégradation de l’environnement. Le biodiesel, c’est-à-dire les mélanges de mono alkyle d’esters d’acides gras obtenus par les procédés d’estérification d’huiles végétales, est un biocarburant d’origine renouvelable qui peut se substituer au gazole issu de ressources fossiles. En outre, le biodiesel est un biocarburant non toxique, biodégradable, doué d’une excellente lubricité et d’un bilan de carbone théoriquement nul. Le choix de la matière première pour la production d’un biodiesel propre et durable est crucial. L’Algérie, par son immense diversité en matière d’écosystèmes, dispose de ressources potentielles prometteuses qui ne demandent qu’à être valorisées et développées. L’objectif de ce travail est de présenter quelques espèces végétales rencontrées à l’état sauvage en Algérie et parmi lesquelles les espèces Pistacia lentiscus, P. terebinthus, P. atlantica et Salvadora persica, qui peuvent être considérées comme sources prometteuses pour la production du biodiesel dans une perspective de développement durable et de valorisation des ressources locales.

“…For SVO production in West Africa, especially in West African arid and semi-arid areas where the soil and climatic environment are not suitable to produce the plants commonly used for biofuel production (like jatropha, soybean or rapeseed), Balanites aegyptiaca (B. aegyptiaca) could be an alternative feedstock. B. aegyptiaca, which has already been targeted for the production of oilseed-based biofuels [9,10] is a drought-resistant tree that can grow under varied ecological conditions (e.g., 100 mm to 1000 mm of rain per year) [11]. The tree produces fruits that each weigh 5 to 8 g. The fruit consists of an epicarp (5 to 9% of its weight), an edible mesocarp or pulp (28 to 33% of its weight), and an endocarp (49 to 54% of its weight).…”

Biofuel from Balanites aegyptiaca: Optimization of the Feedstock Supply Chain

et al. 2018

In arid and semi-arid climates, Balanites aegyptiaca (B. aegyptiaca) is a potential plant to produce oilseed-based biofuels. In this paper an optimization model for a wild biomass supply chain is presented. The model was developed to identify the optimal organization of the supply network that minimizes the cost of supplying the feedstock. It was applied to a case study on a B. aegyptiaca seed supply chain in Burkina Faso. Considering different means of transport and different pre-processing locations, the results show that in contexts such as Burkina Faso’s, the most efficient option for the supply of B. aegyptiaca seeds is using animal drawn carts to transport the biomass from the harvest sites to the collection points. Feedstock pre-processing should take place before transport and an improvement in pre-processing operations by mechanical de-hulling could help reduce the cost price of the seeds. The results also show that more than 35% of the cost price of B. aegyptiaca seed is accounted for by transport costs. Pre-processing, handling, and storage costs account for about 50% of the cost of the seeds.
