The present invention relates to a low-temperature treated perilla oil for suppressing generation of coagulated suspended materials during low-temperature cold storage and a preparation method therefor, and more particularly, to a low-temperature treated perilla oil for suppressing generation of coagulated suspended materials during low-temperature cold storage and a preparation method therefor, wherein in the low-temperature storage and cold storage of perilla oil, which are essentially implemented to increase the storage period of the perilla oil through the minimization of rancidity of the perilla oil, a perilla oil without the generation of coagulated suspended materials during low-temperature cold storage is provided, and thus a high-quality clean perilla oil that does not give an eating person an unpleasant feeling due to suspended materials is provided.

Methods and systems for filtering a plant-derived extract to remove contaminants, including a filter column containing a filter medium and a vacuum pump. The plant-derived extract is mixed with a solvent, and drawn through the filter column across the filter medium. In various embodiments, the solvent and filter medium may be selected to target specific contaminants or classes of contaminants, such as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and/or other synthetic agrichemicals.

Processes for processing bio-sourced oil to produce bio-sourced oil dielectric fluids can be carried out using an apparatus mounted on a mobile transport platform system having a total footprint of no more than about 30 m.sup.2. The processes use a described array of pumps, heaters, filters, a degasser and vacuum system, and an additive metering/mixing valve system to achieve production under low energy and pressure conditions.

A solid avocado oil is characterized in that its palmitic acid content in relation to total fatty acids is between 15 and 35% and its complete melting point is within a range of from 20 to 50? C., the avocado oil being obtained from avocado of a variety selected from the list consisting of Hass, Fuerte, Bacon, Pinkerton, Ettinger, Lula, Ryan, Barker, and/or Peruano. A cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition is characterized in that it comprises, in a cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, a solid avocado oil according to the invention. A method for obtaining a solid avocado oil is characterized in that it is carried out on fresh or dehydrated fruit, crude avocado oils, or co-products from the refining or dewaxing of crude avocado oils.

A method is disclosed of purifying a recycled or renewable organic material, wherein the recycled or renewable organic material contains one or more impurities selected from a group consisting of silicon compounds, phosphorous, Cl and sterols. Exemplary embodiments include (a) providing the recycled or renewable organic material; (c) heat treating the recycled or renewable organic material at 100 to 450? C.; and (f) hydrotreating the heat treated recycled or renewable organic material in a presence of a hydrotreating catalyst; to obtain purified hydrotreated recycled or renewable organic material.

Methods and compositions for the production of dielectric fluids from lipids produced by microorganisms are provided, including oil-bearing microorganisms and methods of low cost cultivation of such microorganisms. Microalgal cells containing exogenous genes encoding, for example, a sucrose transporter, a sucrose invertase, a fructokinase, a polysaccharide-degrading enzyme, a lipid pathway modification enzyme, a fatty acyl-ACP thioesterase, a desaturase, a fatty acyl-CoA/aldehyde reductase, and/or an acyl carrier protein are useful in manufacturing dielectric fluids.

The present disclosure relates to methods, systems, and devices for efficiently extracting high quality oils and distillates, such as essential oils and hydrosols, from organic matter, such as plant matters. In some embodiments, organic matter comprises active chemical elements, which are used for therapeutic, medicinal, culinary, and industrial purposes.

Provided herein are systems and methods for the facile extraction and purification of oils from plant material, including cannabis and hemp. The systems and methods herein are versatile, and may utilize a wide range of solvents to extract oils from a variety of plant-based material. Further, the provided systems and methods are closed loop, reducing the loss solvent and decreasing the risk of safety concerns such as human exposure to solvent chemicals or explosion of volatiles. In some embodiments, the systems and methods remove impurities from the extracted oils, for example waxes or other precipitates, and provide a higher purity and higher quality extract.

There is described a process for producing biodiesel and related products from mixtures. There is also described a process for producing precursors and feedstock materials for producing biodiesel and related products. The processes use esterification and trans-esterification, separation and purification. Other process steps such as acidification and distillation can also be used.
