Technical - economic evaluations experimental casuistry studied at core walnut oil

Abstract

In this paper was performed study regarding guide technical and economic evaluations for core walnut oil
obtained by extraction with petroleum ether, in a industrial unit considering 240 working days/year. The
economic efficiency relies on analytic and synthetic indicators that give a general view about the production
process. These indicators are used in order to calculate the profit of the factory enterprise. Monitoring of
plant resources are essential for the development of modern agricultural production. Biodiversity of plant
resources in agriculture is a biological basis for assurance the quality of world food products, for creating
new cultivars, through conventional crossing process or application of biotechnology. The values obtained
were as follows: total costs (736215 Euros/year), total revenues (817800 Euros/year), profit (81585
Euros/year), profit rate (11.08%), product cost (73400.63 Euros) and production costs (1301 Euros/kg). The
results of technical-economic calculations estimated have positive values, suggesting that processing
technology is profitable, the costs being lower than revenues, and therefore can be recommended as a
potential technology solution for recovery of core walnut.
