Oil recovery from palm oil solid wastes
Many years of research have been done on extraction of residue oil from palm oil solid wastes. Decanter cake is the solid waste produced from palm oil milling company after decanting the palm oil mill effluent, while spent bleaching clay is the solid waste from palm oil refinery. Basically, this was...
