Pigment of orange peel extracted using ultrasonic pretreatment and hot reflux.The effects of ultrasonic power,ultrasonic pretreatment time,temperature and material-liquid ratio on the pigment yield were discussed.The ultrasonic pretreatment process was optimized and analyzed with response surface methodology,and quadratic regression model was founded.The results showed that ultrasonic pretreatment could promote pigment extraction,increase pigment yield.The pigment yield was as 65.53%,which had been increased 11.31% compared with the sample whic...
