Abstract
|
In this paper yield of nimbin extraction from neem seeds using supercritical carbon dioxide with methanol as co-solvent has been studied. In this case mass transfer coefficient in terms of Sherwood number has been estimated by a neuro-fuzzy network. Then the estimated mass transfer coefficient has been fed to the system model which is set of partial differential equations. The proposed gray box model was validated with experimental data.
