Relationship of moulding pressure and weigh of granulate in improving the mechanical and characteristics of biopolymer from renewable resources

Waste cooking oils are problematic disposal especially in the developed countries. Options for disposing of waste cooking oil are limited. Pouring waste cooking oil down to the drain or sewers leads to clog and odour as well as damage wastewater leading to problems for humanlife. Thus, in this resea...
