ObjectivesObjectives

• WP1: Non-food crops (INF, ITERG, KEFI, HEMPFLAX, CHIMAR, NCPRI)

Explore the potential of non-food crops, which can be domestically grown in EU27 countries, for selected industrial

applications, namely oils, fibers, resins, pharmaceuticals and other specialty products.

Task 1.1-Oil crops

• WP3: Bio-based products (INF, ITERG, KEFI, HEMPFLAX, CHIMAR, NCPRI)

Explore the potential and feasibility of the European industry to make high value biobased products from non-food crops and

biotechnological routes.

• Harvesting

• World exchanges- production-Yield

European production: approximately 75 000 T, 4% of the world levelEngland (50 000 T) and France (18 000 T): two larger producers in Europe.( Oil World, 2010)

The request in the European Union is about 150,000 tons of oil per year, which represents 450,000 tons of seeds. (Rapport projet Granolin)

Harvesting can be a major problem with linseed, particularly if the crop is late, incompletely desiccated or lodged. (SOLIN, 2002)

To ensure the production of seeds of good quality imposes to the producers a strong attention and a great availability the moment of harvest. (Institut technique du lin, 2010)

“France places itself at the top of the classification of yields with an average of 1.8 t/ha.” (Mathilde Carpentier, 2010)

The crop should be kept fully weed-free to avoid reduced yields and harvesting problems. H.G. Breemhaar, A. Bouman, 1995

At present, seed yields of 1000 to 1500 kg/ha are obtained on a farm scale, but with improved production systems are selected varieties it is believed yields could double, making it an attractive industrial oilseed crop for European farmers. Report Carmina 2000

calendic acid ≈ 60% Potential uses for calendic acid paint manufacture, varnishes, cosmetics and some industrial nylon products IENICA crops Database (2002) ; it may also have wound healing properties. coatings, paints and cosmetics (Muuse et al.,

1992).“The chemical structure of calendic acid, containing three reactive conjugated ethylenic bonds and an octatrienoic acid isomer, makes it a potentially useful compound within industrial products and for chemical modification. Market opportunities have been identified for Calendula oil as an ingredient for the production of reactive diluents and oil based alkyd resins which are applied in high solid paints and as a substitute for Tung oil, which is currently imported into the UE”. Report Carmina 2000

Difficulties of dehulling and refining have been reported (CETIOM/ ITERG)

Calendula genotypes investigated in the VOSFA programCARMINA is directed towards the development of the best technology to process speciality oil (Calendula oil) from seeds. Calendula officinalis is one of five species included in an European Community AIR project “Vegetable oils with specific fatty acids”, which commenced in 1994 on 2 years on the agronomic evaluation of the crop in north west Europe.

Soil and water needs: highly adaptable species: very tolerant and thrives under a wide range of climatic and edaphic conditions. The plant resists to long periods of drought (7 to 8 months in Mali).Optimum rainfall : between 1 000 and 1500 mm (FACT, 2007), which corresponds to subhumid ecologies.

Fertility management :on the island of Fogo, Müch (1986) : the plant never presented symptom of lack of elements nutritive and from of deduced that it has a particularly powerful system of absorption.

• Harvesting

• Production-Yield

Under conditions of a long rainy season, harvesting has to be done manually, because fruits are continuously ripening-a problem for any mechanical harvesting. Report Expert Meeting Jatropha, Brussels 07/12/07

The Brazilian authors (Saturnino and Al, 2005) announce a possibility of harvest mechanical using a vibrator, such as it is practiced for the olive-tree or the coffee-tree. This option could be considered if one manages to regroup maturity.

Because of the wild nature of the plant, productivity reports vary considerably from less than 100 kg to more than 10 000 kg of seeds per ha. Prof. Dr.K.BECKER, 2009

The oil is suitable as lubricant. (Meier zu Beerentrup and Röbbelen, 1987; Van Soest, 1994). In addition, recent developments indicate that nervonic acid may be used as raw material for the production of a medicine against multiple sclerosis (Nicholls, 1996).

• Area of Origin: Ethiopia, Turko-Iranian area of S.W. Asia

• Distribution in UE 27:

Temperature : considered as drought-tolerant (depends on the variety) This quality also can be enhanced by genetic selection (Castaneda, 1983). temperature range of 15-25°C over the main vegetative period.

Soil and water needs: Crambe will grow on a variety of soil types with highest yield being obtained on sandy loams, similar to those regions where it is found growing naturally. Heavy clays, sands and soil with an impacted layer which restricts root growth are unsuitable.

Fertility management : Crambe’s response to soil fertility is similar to that of small grains, mustard and canola.

“Yields are variable ranging from 1.25-3.7 t/ha”. (Ienica 2004)

• Production-Yield

• Harvesting

Crambe is physiologically mature when 50 percent of the seeds have turned brown. Greg

Endres, Blaine Schatz, 1993Extensive branching is considered to be a disadvantage for mechanical harvesting, since inch terminates in a raceme. E.A.WEISS,Oilseed crops,1983

Crambe can be harvested using a conventional combined harvester; desiccation thought swathing or by chemical means may be advisable as maturity can be uneven”.

Other data: Yields of 1 500- 2000 kg/ha have been commonly achieved on a field scale in Europe and the USSR, slightly less than this in the USA. Experimental trials I many countries have consistently yielded 2,000-3,000 kg/ha, which would indicate that 2,500 kg/ha can reasonably be expected and should be the target”. (E.A.WEISS,Oilseed crops,1983)

Yield (q/ha): 10,93 -14,24 q/ha (Data experiments in France, Saint Pathus-1994)

Crambe oil is a very effective lubricant, and is much more biodegradable than mineral oils, so it may be

used alone or as additives for the textile, steel and shipping industries”. The oil can also be used in pharmaceuticals, fish food coating agents, cosmetics, nylon and perfumes. More recently it is also being considered as an oil for use in biofuel production (By Ray Hansen, 2010)

Erucic acid is used mainly as erucamide, an effective on-stick agent in polyolefin films for wrapping food, plastic bags, shrink wraps, lubricants, plasticisers anf foam suppressants etc. (Sue Knights, 2003)

cultivation mechanical harvesting and cleaning

of the seeds is a problem.

Crambe High level in erucic acid

Competition with erucic rapeseed, crambe: 58-66% erucic acid and

erucic rapeseed: 45-57% but lower Yields and fatty

content .Glucosinolate content of the meal.

WP3: Bio-based product (Task 3.1)

Progress of work: WP3Progress of work: WP3

•Set forth research gaps, prospects and recommendations to procure bio-based products will

be tackled.

ITERG’s contribution will be drawn from their activities in the fields of vegetable oils for non food industrial uses such as:

Field 1: Biodiesel productionField 2: lubricantField 3: Paint, ink coating& resinField 4: Polymer

And also the research on the new renewable business opportunities, including wood industry, building industry, cosmetic, etc..

•Review on the product yielding capacity from

various industrial crops streams

•Identify desirable quality characteristics that feedstock has

to meet for mature industrial processes

•Report on current alternative resources (including petroleum-based or chemical counterparts)

for each industrial use

•Set prospects to widen the range of potential feedstocks for the understudy

industrial uses, based on the technology improvements

•Identify restricting factors that inhibit broader industrial use of the biomass feedstocks (supply,

costs, physical traits, consistency in quality, technical performance, research gaps, etc..)
