No, due to two reasons 1- edible oils are not soluble in methanol,2- methanol is a poisoness liquid.
methanol can be hanol can exractused in extraction as in our research we found that 25%met can be used in extraction of strobilanthes crispus.
that depends on the solubility of the components that you want to extract.
Because methanol is a very polar solvent
hot water extraction , aqueous extraction, solvent extraction
Good old rubbing alcohol, i.e. isopropanol kills bacteria, and so does ethanol and methanol.
we can say this because both of these are separation technique
- the solvent must be miscible with the organic solute and not miscible with water- also any chemical reaction is permitted- higher yield of extraction- easy and complete recovery of the solvent
The solubility of cholesterol in methanol is 0.014. 2-propanol would be a better solvent than methanol for the extraction of cholesterol from egg yolk.
Because methanol is a very polar solvent
methanol
They are used in liquid:liquid extractions, methanol especially. What extraction are you performing? plant extraction for antimicrobial activities and phytochemical ivestigation
serves as catalyst
hot water extraction , aqueous extraction, solvent extraction
conclusion for extraction of bitumen
hot water extraction , aqueous extraction, solvent extraction
Maybe, Methanol
By solvent extraction with water. By fractional distillation.
