“…On the other hand, Kunthakudee et al. (2019) also reported this temperature effect on the lycopene extraction yield from tomato paste. However, due to lycopene degradation, a decrease in extraction yield was observed, with further increase in temperature.…”

“…The experimental value for CEY (373.2 µg β-carotene equivalents/g of DPP, 61.2%) obtained under optimal conditions was in good agreement with the estimated value by the RSM-based model, which confirms the validity of the developed model to effectively predict carotenoid extraction from pumpkin pulp using canola oil as a solvent. Different studies (Hooshmand et al, 2017;Kunthakudee et al, 2019;Sachindra & Mahendrakar, 2005) have shown that usually the extraction process is optimized by controlling the solvent/material ratio, extraction temperature, and time, which indicates that these parameters are critical to maximizing the CEY from natural sources. The results obtained in our research indicate that the developed method for carotenoid extraction from pumpkin pulp with canola oil obtained good extractions yields (373.2 µg/g) compared to those obtained in shrimp waste (27.6 µg/g) by Sachindra and Mahendrakar (2005), and by Hooshmand et al (2017) in blue crab waste (0.37 µg/g) using sunflower oil as a solvent.…”

“…Vegetable oils are an ecologic and economic alternative to traditional organic solvents, offering a high potential for carotenoid extraction due to the oil‐solubility of these pigments, with attractive advantages, as natural carotenoid‐enriched oils (CEOs) can be directly used as ingredients in the food and cosmetic product formulation (Yara‐Varón et al., 2017). Several studies have reported the recovery of carotenoids (astaxanthin, lycopene, β‐carotene) from natural sources (shrimp, tomato, carrot, peach palm fruit, and pomegranate wastes, as well as bee pollen and mango pulp) using various vegetable oils as alternative solvents, such as sunflower, peanut, gingelly, mustard, sesame, palm, soybean, coconut, flaxseed, corn, canola, olive, grape, and rice bran oil (Baria et al., 2019; Goula et al., 2017; Kunthakudee et al., 2019; Nour et al., 2018; Ordoñez‐Santos et al., 2019; Purohit & Gogate, 2015; Sachindra & Mahendrakar, 2005; Salazar‐González et al., 2019). Additionally, supercritical carbon dioxide technology has been used to obtain organic‐solvent‐free carotenoid extracts from different vegetable matrices, such as pumpkin (de Andrade Lima et al., 2019; Durante et al., 2014).…”

Pumpkin pulp is the main waste generated by pumpkin seed growers. This agro‐industrial waste is a valuable source of bioactive compounds, especially carotenoids (β‐carotene, α‐carotene, and lutein), which exhibit a broad spectrum of health‐promoting effects. In this study, vegetable oils (canola, corn, and soybean oil) were used as green solvent alternatives to conventional organic solvents for carotenoid extraction from dried pumpkin pulp (DPP) waste. The highest carotenoid extraction yield (CEY) was obtained with canola oil, at a 1:10 DPP/oil ratio. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the extraction process parameters (temperature, time, and stirring rate) through a Box‐Behnken design (BBD) maximizing CEY in canola oil. The extraction temperature and stirring rate were found to have a significant linear and quadratic effect, respectively, on CEY. Optimum conditions were achieved at 21.8 min, 250 rpm, and 60°C. Under these optimized conditions, the estimated value for CEY was 378.1 µg β‐carotene equivalents/g of DPP, corresponding to 61.6% of the total carotenoid content present in the DPP. In contrast, the observed experimental value was 373.2 µg β‐carotene equivalents/g of DPP (61.2%). The experimental value was very close to the estimated value, which verifies the model's adequacy and fit. This study shows an alternative method to extract carotenoids from DPP with canola oil, obtaining an oil naturally enriched with carotenoids that could be used as a potential functional ingredient in the development of food, cosmetics, and medicinal products. Practical Application Pumpkin by‐products are a potential carotenoid source. Vegetable oil can be used as an alternative solvent for carotenoid extraction from pumpkin residues to obtain an enriched carotenoid oil that can be used to formulate food products.

“…Then, the extraction of carotenoids with oils appears as an innovative opportunity to develop sustainable, efficient and cost-effective processes for the successive supply of natural lycopene. Authors such as Kunthakudee, Sunsandee, Chutvirasakul and Ramakul (2020) [ 13 ] used different oil types and reported the following in descending order of extraction efficiency: coconut oil > soybean oil > olive oil > palm oil > SFO, with approximately 80% of the maximum of lycopene in coconut oil [ 13 ]. It has been reported that carotenoids have a relatively high bioaccessibility in mixed micelles generated from long-chain triglycerides (LCTs) [ 14 , 15 ].…”

According to the regulations of the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), organic solvents should be limited in pharmaceutical and food products due to their inherent toxicity. For this reason, this short paper proposes different mechanical treatments to extract lycopene without organic solvents to produce an edible sunflower oil (SFO) enriched with lycopene from fresh pink guavas (Psidium guajava L.) (FPGs). The methodology involves the use of SFO and a combination of mechanical treatments: a waring blender (WB), WB+ high-shear mixing (HSM) and WB+ ultrafine friction grinding (UFFG). The solid:solvent (FPG:SFO) ratios used in all the techniques were 1:5, 1:10 and 1:20. The results from optical microscopy and UV–vis spectroscopy showed a correlation between the concentration of lycopene in SFO, vegetable tissue diameters and FPG:SFO ratio. The highest lycopene concentration, 18.215 ± 1.834 mg/g FPG, was achieved in WB + UFFG with an FPG:SFO ratio of 1:20. The yield of this treatment was 66% in comparison to the conventional extraction method. The maximal lycopene concentration achieved in this work was significantly higher than the values reported by other authors, using high-pressure homogenization for tomato peel and several solvents such as water, SFO, ethyl lactate and acetone.

About1.5 billion tyres are manufactured every year and enormous quantity of the tyres end up in trash. Waste rubber tyres possess calorific value around 39- 42 MJkg-1which makes it an attractive choice for pyrolysis process. The aim of the present work is to convert residual tyres into energy reach pyro-gas. A single column fixed bed batch pyrolyzer was designed pyrolysis of residual tyres. The residual tyres were ground into fine powder. The characterization of powdered residual tyres was performed with elemental analyser to determine the total carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and sulphur. Thermo Gravimetric Analysis of the residual tyres was conducted at different heating rates viz., 5 °C min-1, 10 °C min-1, 15 °C min-1 to elucidate the thermal degradation profile. The thermal cracking of a residual tyres was conducted at temperature range of 450 °C to 550 °C with increment of 50 °C. Pyro-gas was measured individually for each trail and the exergy was determined using thermodynamic laws. Four different model-free methods were employed to estimate the kinetic parameter such as activation energy and order of the reaction. The average activation energy from Friedman model was evaluated to be 127.35 kJ mol-1. A maximum of 52.11% of Pyro-oil was reported at 550 °C. The maximum energy and exergy were 5.49 MJ kg-1 and 4.92 MJ kg-1 respectively.
