Abstract
Berry fruit by-products are a source of polyphenol compounds and highly nutritious oils and can be reused to fulfill the requirements of the circular economy model. One of the methods of obtaining polyphenol-rich extracts or oils is extraction. Applying conventional solvent extraction techniques may be insufficient to reach high polyphenol or lipid fraction yields and selectivity of specific compounds. Alternative extraction methods, mainly ultrasound-assisted extraction, pulsed electric field-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction and supercritical fluid extraction, are ways to improve the efficiency of the isolation of bioactive compounds or oils from berry fruit by-products. Additionally, non-conventional techniques are considered as green extraction methods, as they consume less energy, solvent volume and time. The aim of this review is to summarize the studies on alternative extraction methods and their relationship to the composition of extracts or oils obtained from berry waste products.

A Comparative Assessment of Biodiesel Cetane Number Predictive Correlations Based on Fatty Acid Composition. ENERGIES 2019.

Abstract
Sixteen biodiesel cetane number (CN) predictive models developed since the early 1980s have been gathered and compared in order to assess their predictive capability, strengths and shortcomings. All are based on the fatty acid (FA) composition and/or the various metrics derived directly from it, namely, the degree of unsaturation, molecular weight, number of double bonds and chain length. The models were evaluated against a broad set of experimental data from the literature comprising 50 series of measured CNs and FA compositions. It was found that models based purely on compositional structure manifest the best predictive capability in the form of coefficient of determination R2. On the other hand, more complex models incorporating the effects of molecular weight, degree of unsaturation and chain length, although reliable in their predictions, exhibit lower accuracy. Average and maximum errors from each model’s predictions were also computed and assessed.
