USE OF COMPOSITE SOLVENTS IN THE EXTRACTION PROCESS
Abstract
This study developed a technology for producing a high-protein, safe product for the food and feed industries by reducing the gossypol content in cottonseed cake. The aim of the study was to neutralize gossypol and maximize protein content through an extraction process. Physicochemical methods, solvent selection, determination of optimal parameters, and cottonseed cake quality assessment were used. The results suggest innovative approaches to increasing the efficiency of gossypol removal and preserving protein.
