Estimation of technical efficiency of black cumin

  • How to extract black cumin seed oil?
  • Black cumin seed oil extraction by supercritical fluid extraction (liquid CO 2) at 50 °C and 350 bar is known as a modern and green extraction method with 31.7% extraction efficiency, which results in the production of good quality oil with high level of natural antioxidants such as thymoquinone (Solati et al. 2013 ).
  • What oilseeds are used in Ethiopia?
  • Nine oilseeds namely noug, gomenzer, linseed, soybean, sunflower, castor, sesame, ground nut and cotton are important in Ethiopia for edible oil consumption. During the last 60 years, 156 varieties with their production practices were registered. Sesame contributes significantly to the foreign currency earnings next to coffee.
  • How to reduce oil efficiency of black cumin seeds in cold press?
  • However, this method gives a lower oil yield (Atta 2003 ). To overcome the low oil efficiency problem in cold press, thermal treatments (roasting and microwaves pre-treatments) and non-thermal treatments (ultrasound power) of black cumin seeds prior to oil extraction by the press are advised (Moghimi et al. 2018; Mazaheri et al. 2019a, b ).
  • Why do we microwave & roast black cumin seeds before oil extraction?
  • Microwaving and roasting before extraction of oil by pressing black cumin seeds cause lipase inactivation, improvement of the oil quality, higher oil extraction yield, oxidative stability, and improve the phenolic compounds content in the extracted oil (Table 21.1 ).
