Artificial Neural Networks to Optimize Oil-in-Water Emulsion Stability with Orange By-Products

), OBF emulsions exhibited up to 32% lower viscosities, 129% larger droplets, and 45% smaller Z potential values. Optimization solved with ANNs minimizing the droplet size and the emulsion instability resulted in OBF and protein concentrations of 3.16 and 0.14%, respectively. The experimental characteristics of the optimum emulsion closely matched those predicted by ANNs demonstrating the usefulness of the proposed method.
