Modification of grassy weeds as potential used cooking oil absorbent

The modification of surface on lignocellulosics materials (grassy weeds) with sodium hyroxide (NaOH) were studied. The sorption test were studied by different of weight of absorbent (grassy weeds) and various time interval. The results shows that the different between modified grassy weeds and unmod...

Description
Summary:The modification of surface on lignocellulosics materials (grassy weeds) with sodium hyroxide (NaOH) were studied. The sorption test were studied by different of weight of absorbent (grassy weeds) and various time interval. The results shows that the different between modified grassy weeds and unmodified of grassy weeds for used cooking oil absorption is 120 %.The highest percentage of sorption capacity is 2 gram of modified grassy weeds with 30 minutes of absorption time.
