Bioconversion of used potato cooking oil derived from palm oil into biodiesel and by-product glycerol / Nurshafiqa Burhanuddin
The increase of cooking oil uses and the awareness of the impact of pollution to the environment with increasing population has created a need to find an alternative on how to utilize the waste. The recovery of glycerol and biodiesel from the waste cooking oil can become an alternative in order to u...
