AI Technical Summary
Current methods for extracting ricinoleic acid from ricin paste are inefficient, often leaving residual solvents, requiring lengthy processes, and compromising the nutritional value of the paste, while also being unsuitable for industrialization due to high residual toxins and low extraction rates.
A method involving continuous high-pressure high-temperature water extraction followed by solvent-based purification steps, including oil ether and chloroform extraction, and subsequent recrystallization to achieve high purity and yield of ricinoleic acid without solvent residues.
This method achieves high and efficient extraction of ricinoleic acid with no solvent residues, enabling industrial-scale production while preserving the nutritional value of the ricin paste.
