Organic Pollution Loads by Home-made Soaps Made from Used Frying Oil.

Diesel Fuel from Used Frying Oil

New conversion technologies of used edible oils and waste animal fats into a biofuel appropriate for use in standard diesel engines have been developed, taking into consideration environmental requirements and improvement in the economics of current trans-esterification technologies. The variation in the properties of substrates made from used rape oil after treatment with mixed adsorbents (act...

Antifungal properties of Japanese cedar essential oil from waste wood chips made from used sake barrels.

In this study, we prepared essential oil (EO) from waste wood chips made from used sake barrels (USBs) of Japanese cedar (i.e., EO-USB) by steam distillation. We found that EO-USB and three commercially purchased EOs derived from xylem tissue of Japanese woods, such as Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica), Japanese cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa) and false arborvitae (Thujopsis dolabrata), supp...

Potential of used frying oil in paving material: solution to environmental pollution problem

The improper disposal of used frying oil (UFO) presents numerous ecological, environmental and municipal problems. Of great concern is the resultant blockage of municipal drainage systems and water treatment facilities, harm to wildlife when they become coated in it and detriment to aquatic life and ecosystems due to the depletion of the oxygen content in water bodies such as rivers and lakes t...

A Home-Made Hartshorne-Serre Correspondence

We provide an elementary proof of the Hartshorne-Serre correspondence for constructing vector bundles from local complete intersection subschemes of codimension two. This will be done, as in the correspondence of hypersurfaces and line bundles, by patching together local determinantal equations in order to produce sections of a vector bundle.
