Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleTransesterification of Palm Oil for the Production of BiodieselKhalizani Khalid, Khalisanni KhalidProblem statement: Palm oil is known as an important source of edible oil with significant values of renewable energy. Depletion of petroleum had captured much attention on producing biodiesel from the palm oil. Approach: The most concerning methods for the production of biodiesel were discussed, namely transesterification (alkali and acid), enzymetic approach and supercritical alcohol. Results: The results showed the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 8,389 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleInjection Molding of Titanium Alloy Implant For Biomedical Application Using Novel Binder System Based on Palm Oil DerivativesR. Ibrahim, M. Azmirruddin, M. Jabir et al.Problem statement: Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) has been widely used as an implant for biomedical application. In this study, the implant had been fabricated using high technology of Powder Injection Molding (PIM) process due to the cost effective technique for producing small, complex and precision parts in high volume compared with conventional method through machining. Approach: Through PIM, the binder system … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,515 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSupplementation of Prill Fat Derived from Palm Oil on Nutrient Digestibility and Dairy Cow PerformanceLolita Udin Riestanti, Despal, Yuli RetnaniPrill fat is a hydrogenated vegetable oil which contains more than 85% palmitic acid with a high melting point. Due to this reason, it does not melt at rumen temperature and bypass rumen degradation. This study was aimed to determine the optimum level of prill fat (86% palmitic acid) supplementation in dairy ration on fermentation characteristics, feed digestibility, milk production, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2021 · 8,750 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleReduction of Ammonia Volatilization through Mixing Urea with Humic and Fulvic Acids isolated from Palm Oil Mill Effluent SludgeShamsuddin Rosliza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: Ammonia volatilization from surface-applied urea may be substantial but it is possible to control it by mixing urea with acidic substances such as Humic Acids (HA) and Fulvic Acids (FA). The objective of this study was to compare the effects of urea-HA, urea-FA, urea-acidified (HA+FA) mixtures on ammonia loss, soil pH, soil exchangeable ammonium and available nitrate accumulation … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,350 accessesView PDF Cite
