Microwave assisted thermal process of castor oil for the production of specialty chemical

The utilization of vegetable oils is currently in the highlight of the chemical industry, as they are one of the most important renewable resources due to their universal availability, inherent biodegradability, low price, and eco-friendly. Castor oil from castor plant (Ricinus Communis) which is th...
