“…Identifying the relevant strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats is conducive to more efficient policy planning and action. In the area of policy planning, SWOT analysis has been recently used to (i) find strategies toward a sustainable forest-based bioeconomy in Italy (Falcone et al, 2020), (ii) formulate solutions for edible oil waste from farm to table in Iran (Salmani et al, 2021), and (iii) study the utilization of forest residues as biomass in Turkey (Kurt, 2020).…”

Climate change, food security, and energy crisis are becoming more intense in our world. Oil palm can be utilized in both the food and biofuel industries. To respond to the crisis, it is necessary to develop palm oil products besides vegetable oil and biodiesel. This article focuses on the development of strategies to research oil palm throughout the supply chain in Thailand. The SWOT factors (the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) are recognized via interviews with stakeholders. These stakeholders are feedstock producers, crude palm oil (CPO) producers, government agencies, biodiesel producers, palm oil refinery producers, and researchers. The results obtained from the data collection were analyzed and led to the formulation of strategies for future research on oil palm by the TOWS matrix. According to this analysis, future palm oil research framework strategies should consist of four categories: (1) oil palm management policy, developing regulation and economic instruments of various forms to systematically manage the oil palm industry, and applying big data and smart innovation to analyze market behavior; (2) oil palm breeding and production technologies, developing smart innovation in line with farmers’ lifestyles, and supporting research on oil content analysis and harvesting technology; (3) oil palm biomass conversion technologies, assessing environmental impacts through life cycle technology, evaluating the potential reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and increasing the consumption rate of palm biomass; and (4) palm-based oleochemical products, developing oleochemical technology at the industrial level, expanding the potential capacity of producing oleochemical derivative products, and increasing the consumption rate and value added of CPO. All four frameworks were detailed and revised in line with the information obtained from seminars, comments, and interviews to meet the needs of all stakeholders. This framework will help drive the Bio-Circular-Green economy model in the future.

“…Cooking oil waste refers to vegetable oil and animal fat that have lost their nutritional value. With the continuous development of the economy and society, the scale of the catering industry is rapidly expanding, and as a result, there has been a significant increase in the discharge of cooking oil waste (De Feo et al 2020, Salmani et al 2022. A large amount of cooking oil waste is produced daily, so if it is not properly controlled, it can cause environmental problems.…”

Dynamics of edible oils/water separation using Milkweed floss fiber

One of the environmental oil pollutants is kitchen sewage, which is made up of a mixture of water and cooking oil, particularly frying oils. By trapping the oil droplets in their fibrous network, the milkweed plant's inherent cellulose fibers may separate the oil from the water. Milkweed packing densities of 0.07, 0.09, and 0.1 g/cm3; the fiber arrangement inside the kit (regular and random); and the liquid flow rates of 0.04 and 0.02 m3/h were tested in order to assess the dynamics of oil/water separation in milkweed filters. The adsorbent kit manufactured from milkweed fruit fibers may adsorb more oil at a low flow rate than at a high flow rate, according to the findings of the oil adsorption capacity tests. The oil absorption capacity of the adsorbent kit is also influenced by the fiber packing density; hence, a high packing density results in a reduction in oil absorption capacity. Contrarily, the positioning of the fibers within the adsorption kit is crucial because regular arrangement of the fibers in the direction of the sewage flow path will increase oil absorption more than tangled and random placement. The milkweed floss fibers were tested for water wettability, and the results showed that they are hydrophobic, with a water contact angle of roughly 140o. Nevertheless, performing the same test in the fiber's channel is virtually impossible. To solve this issue, a novel analytical computation of the oil's contact angle was performed, and the conclusions were supported by in-process microscopic photographs of oil absorption.

“…Waste cooking oil (WCO) is generated in food service outlets and households, and its improper storage poses a serious threat to human health and the environment [1,2]. During the frying process, various oxidation products are formed in the oil, such as polyglycerides and acyloglycerols, as well as dimeric and polymeric acids, which can increase the risk of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.…”

Waste cooking oil poses a serious threat to human health and the environment, both in households and in larger communities. One of the applications of waste cooking oil is composite materials called vegeblocks, which can be used for construction purposes. These composites are formed by the process of polymerisation, esterification and polyesterification. The resulting materials exhibit mechanical strength in line with the requirements for paving blocks. Composite materials that have been annealed for a minimum of 20 h at 200 °C or higher have the highest tensile strength (above 5 MPa). In contrast, composites with the highest flexural strength were obtained after processing at 210 °C for 16 h. The Saxa 2 variety showed the greatest inhibition of storage root growth (almost 43% compared to the control sample), as well as stimulation of root and leaf blade growth (by a maximum of 61.5% and 53.5%, respectively, compared to the control sample). The composite obtained from the maximum process parameters resulted in significant growth of both the root and the green part of both radish varieties by up to 35%. The study showed that the presence of vegeblocks in the plants causes stress conditions, resulting in increased peroxidase content compared to the control sample. The presence of the oil composite in the soil did not increase the amount of catalase in the radish, and even a reduction was observed compared to the control sample.
