By proper selection of initial moisture content, heating temperature and heating time, yields of about 40% can be obtained from melon seeds at an expression pressure of 25
All of these melon seeds are edible and their oils are extracted on a very limited scale in the growing areas. There are a few reports in the literature about the fatty acid compositions of seed oils from some varieties of melons (C. colocynth) and some acknowledgement of the good quality of these seed oils [3, 4].

Fruits seeds, including watermelon, are widely utilized as a source of oil extraction used for food or medicinal purposes as mentioned in several recent studies such as
Most seed oils are edible while some are used generally as raw material for soap production, chocolate, margarine, and recently in biodiesel formulations as potential candidates capable of replacing fossil fuels which are costly and destructive to the environment. Oilseeds are a green and major reservoir which when properly exploited can be used
- Are Egusi melon seeds edible?
- The authors carried out laboratory-scale oil extraction using the chemical extraction method, which is not edible for consumption and not for the mass production of oil from egusi melon kernels. Studies have shown that egusi melon seeds have high oil contents [2, 6, 29].
- Can melon seeds be used for oil extraction?
- Additionally, two oil-extraction methods (screw and hydraulic press) were studied. Results showed that melon seeds may be used as a novel source of healthy oils. Higher-quality oils were obtained with the hydraulic press; however, low yields reduced industrial interest in this method.
- Can melon seeds produce vegetable oil?
- The oil content of melon seeds and the current demand for new vegetable oils have led to an excellent opportunity for the industrial production of vegetable oil from melon seeds. The selection of an appropriate extraction method is crucial for producing high-quality oils.
- What is the mechanical expression of oil from melon seeds?
- Investigations were conducted on the mechanical expression of oil from melon seeds ( Citrullus vulgaris) in a laboratory press. The processing variables were particle size, moisture content, heating temperature and heating time. Physical properties such as colour, specific gravity, refractive index and viscosity were determined.
