153. THE DETERMINATION OF ACID VALUE LEVELS IN COMMERCIAL SOYA BEAN OIL AND OLIVE OIL

» ABSTRACT Rural oil extraction usually occurs near the areas of raw material production. This provides the smallscale processor with access to raw materials, helps to ensure that perishable oil crops are processed quickly, and reduces transport costs. For rural communities and the urban poor, unrefined vegetable oils contribute significantly to the total amount of oil consumed. Crude oils are affor...Continue Reading »
