Rubber seed oil as a potential source for biodiesel production in Bangladesh

In the present paper, rubber seed oil (RSO) has been investigated as a potential source for biodiesel production in Bangladesh. Rubber seed oil has been extracted from the rubber seeds collected from the local garden. Different methods have been applied for the oil extraction, such as mechanical pre...
