Feasibility of palm oil mill effluent sludge oil as cheaper carbon sources in biosurfactant production

Biosurfactant have received growing interest in recent years due to its capability in biodegradation of oils that would increase oil solubility in water, reduction of surface tension and low level of toxicity imposed to environment. Therefore, biosurfactant is less competitive than synthetic product...
