STUDY OF THE INFLUENCE OF MATERIAL SIZE ON THE PRODUCTION OF HIGH-QUALITY COTTON FLOUR

Abstract

This article examines the influence of feedstock size on the extraction of cottonseed meal to produce high-protein cottonseed shrot, as well as the physicochemical properties of solvents obtained by extracting gasoline, used in traditional technology, with other types of organic solvents, specifically ethanol and acetone. The studyalso examined the relationship between the degree of cottonseed meal grinding, the concentration of the resulting micelles, and the duration of the extraction process during direct extraction using solvents derived from cottonseed meal.
