Abstract

Neem oil is a very beneficial oil for human utility in various fields and is commonly extracted by a solvent like hexane and ethanol. This work stresses on investigating the usability of blends of pure solvents while adopting a new technology of sono assisted extraction for the extraction of oil from neem seeds. The prepared blends have been analyzed on the basis of total pressure, bubble point temperature, molecular weight for the different compositions solvents that is to be mixed to form the blends. In this work, it is proposed to use ethyl acetate + acetone, hexane + acetone and hexane + ethyl acetate binary blends with the comparison to unary pure solvents and also recording the solvent recovery in each case after distillation. The reusability of the solvents recovered after the first sets of extraction is also a topic of major concern.
