Extraction of residual oil from oil palm decanter cake by using mini-pilot soxhlet system and its management recommendations / Nurul Haziqah Shaharuddin

Elaeis guineensis or also commonly known as oil palm tree was originated came from West Africa where fIrstly they were live wildly. Decanter cake are produced after the pressing of sludge that has been collected from oil storage. Decanter cake usually returning back to fIeld as a fertilizer for the...
