Investigation on the Extraction of Oil from Carica papaya Seed using Two Different Techniques

Chukwuemeke. P Ukpaka, Chuku B., Nwosi A. S., Chie-Amadi. G. O.

Abstract


Study was conducted on methods of oil extraction from Carica papaya using Soxhlet method and supercritical fluid extraction. The study revealed yield characteristics as Soxhlet extraction method yielded more Carica papaya seed oils than the supercritical extraction method. The characteristic of seed oil was studied. Percent seed oil was recorded 31.13 and chemical composition of Carica papaya was found to be protein (26.78%), ash (3.2%), crude fiber (21.4%) and total carbohydrate (10.69%).
Carica papaya seed oil utilized in high amounts could lead to reduced risk of coronary heart disease. In addition, high oleic oil has sufficient stability to be used in demanding applications such as frying, bakery, crackers, cereal dried fruit, and spray oil for snacks. Carica papaya seed oil can be considered as high oleic and hence viewed as a healthy alternative to many other vegetable oils. Thus, it can be concluded that the seed can be utilized for extraction of oil which has various health benefits with respect to essential fatty acids. Many productions of the Oil will accelerate industrialization while promoting sustainable economic growth hence enhancing improved health and livelihood which is in line with the tenets of vision 2030 and the health-related sustainable developmental goal.
