Currently the sugar factory industry in Indonesia is growing rapidly and the demand for sugar is getting higher. From the production process, the sugar factory industry produces liquid waste that contains high organic ...
Performance of Bayah Natural Zeolite in Biolubricant Synthesis of PaIm Kernel Oil
(Springer, 2022-02-23)
The abundance of local palm oil stocks in Indonesia makes a reason to process palm oil based oleochemical products into biolubricant products. Besides that, there is a demand to lind a bio-based lubricant that is more ...
Palm Kernel Oil Based Lubricant: The Role of Fe Modified on Y-Zeolite During Synthesis
(Springer, 2022-02-23)
Palm oil is considered as the most promising renewable resources for the production of biolubricant due to their high availability non-toxic, biodegradable and metal adhering properties. The main purpose of this research ...
Young Coconut Waste as Greener Desiccant Alterative in Desiccant Dehumidifier
(IOP Publishing, 2020-06-17)
Due to tropical climate in Malaysia, humidity control becomes a challenge, hence dehumidifiers are designed to control the relative humidity in order to achieve the optimal thermal comfort. In existing desiccant dehumidifiers, ...
