Production of Industrial Oil

In this article we will discuss about the production of industrial oil from unusual fatty acids. Most of the vegetable oils have marginal use in industries due to complex nature of fatty acids. The typical mixture of saturated and unsaturated C16 and C18 fatty acids that comprise major vegetable oils. In recent years considerable effort has been directed towards genetically [...]
