Biodegradable grease from palm oil industry wastes

This paper presents an experimental grease formulation made from spent bleaching earth (SBE) as the thickener, waste cooking oil (WCO) as the base oil and fumed silica as the additive. The properties of the different grease formulations, such as the thermal stability, the decomposition temperature,...
