RECOVERY OF USED VEGETABLE OIL BY PROGRESSIVE FREEZING FOR RECYCLING AND REUSE

Improper waste management of used vegetable oil leads to discharge of used vegetable oil to the environment and this will cause environmental pollution particularly land and water pollution. In water, oil layer covers the surface and prevents the dissolution of oxygen, thus causing destroys aquatic...
