The aim is to enhance oil recovery from Brassica carinata seeds using microwave-assisted Soxhlet extraction for biolubricant synthesis.
Utilized microwave-assisted Soxhlet extraction for oil recovery from Brassica carinata seeds.
Analyzed physicochemical properties, fatty acid profiles, and functional groups for three seed varieties.
Conducted stability assessments under various storage conditions.
Oil yields ranged from 33.4% to 44.5%, influenced by extraction parameters.
Erucic acid (42.17%–44.17%) and oleic acid (13.33%–26.97%) dominated the fatty acid profiles identified.
Holeta-1 showed superior stability to oxidative degradation compared to Tesfa and S-67.
