Previous issue date: 2009-12-03 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico / Nowadays, the growing environmental worry leads research the focus the application of alternative materials from renewable resources on the industrial process. The most common vegetable oil extractant using around the world is the hexane, a petroleum derived, toxic and flammable. Based on this fact, the goal of this work was to test vegetable oil extractions from sunflower seeds cultivated on the Rio Grande do Norte State using two extraction process, the mechanical expelling and solvent extraction, this one using hexane and ethanol as a alternative solvent. The solvent extractions were carried out in the Soxhlet extractor in three different extraction times (4, 6, and 8 hours). The effect of solvent and extraction time was evaluated. The mechanical extraction was carried out in a expeller and the sunflower oil obtained was characterized by its physical-chemical properties and compared with sunflower refinery oil. Furthermore this work also explored the pyrolysis reaction carried out by thermogravimetry measurement as alternative route to obtain biofuel. For this purpose the oil samples were heated to ambient temperature until 900?C in heating rate of 5, 10, 20?C min-1 with the objective evaluated the kinetics parameters such activation energy and isoconversion. The TG/DTG curves show the thermal profile decomposition of triglycerides. The curves also showed that antioxidant presents on the refinery oil not influence on the thermal stability of sunflower oil. The total yield of the extraction s process with hexane and ethanol solvent were compared, and the results indicated that the extraction with ethanol were more efficient. The pyrolysis reaction results indicated that the use of unpurified oil required less energy to obtain the bio-oil / Atualmente, o aumento da preocupa??o com o meio ambiente, incentiva as pesquisas que buscam a aplica??o de materiais alternativos provenientes de fontes renov?veis em processos industriais. O extratante de ?leo vegetal mais utilizado no mundo ? o hexano, um derivado de petr?leo t?xico e inflam?vel. Considerando este fato, o presente trabalho teve por objetivo realizar extra??es do ?leo das sementes de girassol cultivadas no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte usando dois processos de extra??o, a extra??o mec?nica e a extra??o com solventes, utilizando hexano e etanol como solvente alternativo. As extra??es com solvente foram realizadas em um extrator Soxhlet utilizando tr?s tempos de extra??o (4, 6 e 8 horas). O efeito do solvente no rendimento da extra??o foi avaliado. O ?leo de girassol obtido da extra??o mec?nica foi caracterizado em rela??o as suas propriedades fisico-qu?micas e comparadas com as propriedades do ?leo de girassol refinado. Al?m disso, o presente trabalho explora as rea??es de pir?lise do ?leo de girassol como uma rota alternativa para a obten??o de biocombust?veis realizadas em um analisador termogravim?trico. Com essa finalidade as amostras de ?leo foram aquecidas da temperatura ambiente at? 900?C em raz?es de aquecimento de 5, 10, 20 ?C min-1 com o objetivo de avaliar os par?metros cin?ticos tais como energia de ativa??o e isoconvers?o. As curvas TG/DTG mostram o perfil t?rmico de decomposi??o dos triglicer?deos. As curvas mostraram tamb?m que o antioxidante presente no ?leo refinado comercial, n?o influencia a estabilidade t?rmica do ?leo de girassol. O rendimento dos processos de extra??o com hexano e etanol foi comparado e os resultados indicaram que a extra??o com etanol foi mais eficiente. Os resultados das rea??es de pir?lise indicaram que o uso do ?leo bruto requer menos energia para a obten??o de biocombust?veis que o ?leo refinado
