  • How to extract oil from canola seeds?
  • The most commonly used extraction process to produce high oil yield from canola seeds involves both mechanical pressing and solvent extraction as shown in Fig. 1. Daun has detailed the conventional extraction of canola oil. A series of steps occur prior to and in preparation for expeller pressing.
  • What are the eco-friendly methods for edible oil extraction?
  • New advanced eco-friendly techniques namely, enzyme-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction can easily overcome the shortcomings of the conventional methods and holds the potential to meet the ever-increasing demand of edible oils.
