This study aimed to evaluate the turmeric oleoresin extraction process using ethanol (97% by volume) as solvent. In this sense, oleoresin extraction experiments were carried out using dry turmeric (moisture 13 %) with a particle size of 4.75 mm as raw material. The extraction time was 24 hours at 40 °C. The results showed that the oleoresin extraction yield of 3.18 ± 0.14% was influenced by the coarse particle size of the raw material, since it was lower than that reported in previous studies, where ground turmeric with a particle size less than 500 μm was used. In relation to the amount of solution adhered to the residual turmeric solid, it was determined that it was 1.51 ± 0.20 g of solution/g of solids. From the results it can be inferred that the use of ethanol in the extraction of oleoresin is technically feasible, however, its performance is influenced by the characteristics of the raw material and the pretreatment of the solid material prior to the extraction stage (drying and reduction of size).
