Separation of oil and water by using coconut coir
The aims for this study are to examine the emulsion stability and to evaluate the effectiveness of using coconut coir in the separation of oil and water (emulsion).Crude oil and distilled water were used as the raw materials.To complete the objective,there are three main (3) parts of experiment need...
