Three-dimensional response surface for the effect of pH extraction and particle size at constant temperature (100°C) on pectin yield extracted from dried Citrus clementina peels.
Source publication
Citrus peels are considered as a rich source of valuable biomolecules like pectin as polymer of polysaccharide acid. In this study, response surface methodology was used to optimize pectin extraction from Citrus clementina peels using citric acid as extraction solvent. The effect of parameters conditioning the extraction process and pectin yield (p...

... results are similar to those observed by Pagan [36] and Raji [18], who reported a significant improvement in the yield of pectin extraction from peach pomace and melon rind, respectively, with increasing temperature [32]. The results shown in Figure 2 reveal that particle size has a substantial impact on pectin yield. At a fixed temperature of 100°C, the production of pectin was greater for the 0.1 mm size raw material (26.64%). ...
