Abstract : This study investigates the degradation of frying oils used in local food establishments through the analysis of key quality parameters. Oil samples, collected after frying common food items such as samosas, Manchurian, chicken, medu vada, jalebi, and momos for prolonged periods (8–9 hours), were examined. Palm and vegetable oils were analysed for acid value, saponification value, peroxide value, and iodine value using standard titrimetric techniques. Acid-base titration methods were applied for acid, peroxide, and saponification values, while iodometric titration was used for iodine value. The comparative assessment highlights the chemical changes occurring in reused oils, emphasizing the necessity of regular monitoring to ensure safety and suitability for continued use in food preparation.

Abstract:
Coconut oil is one part of the coconut that is utilized as cooking oil. This study aims to determine the optimal condition of the saponification number of coconut oil obtained from variations in heating time. This research method is in the form of measuring the value of saponification number by acid-base titration and determining the optimum condition of saponification number of coconut oil based on variations in temperature and saponification heating time on coconut oil obtained from variations in extraction time of 10-15 minutes. The results showed that variations in saponification heating time and temperature caused differences in the saponification number of coconut oil. At 30 minutes of saponification heating at 50°C-70°C, the saponification number value of coconut oil is lower than at 60 minutes of saponification heating at 50°C-70°C. The lowest saponification number value occurs in coconut oil extracted for 10 minutes at 107.66 mg KOH/gram at 50°C saponification heating for 30 minutes and the highest saponification number value occurs in coconut oil extracted for 35 minutes at 230.528 mg KOH/g at 60°C saponification heating for 60 minutes. The best results were obtained at 60°C saponification heating for 60 minutes from all extracted oils and treatment types where the saponification number value was closer to the SNI value range of 180-265 mg KOH/gram.

Abstract:
The results showed a reduction in the saponification value of all ghee samples during frying. The control ghee decreased from 232.18 to 220.25, the BHA-added ghee decreased from 233.29 to 223.15, and the CLE-added ghee decreased from 232.88 to 226.46. These findings suggest that adding 1% CLE effectively prevents the decrease in saponification value during frying. Previous research also reported a decrease in the saponification value of ghee during frying, which can be attributed to the conversion of fatty acids into carbonyl compounds and the subsequent decrease in free fatty acid content.

This study analyzed and compared the physicochemical properties of oils produced from groundnut, melon, watermelon and orange seeds. The moisture content, saponification value, iodine value, peroxide value, acid value, free fatty acid, ester value, refractive index, viscosity, density, specific gravity, cloud point, pour point, flash point and fire point of the oils were analyzed. There were no significant differences in iodine value, peroxide value, refractive index, viscosity, specific gravity, cloud point, pour point, flash point and fire point, while there were significant differences in the moisture content, saponification value, acid value, free fatty acid, ester value, and density, The results revealed that these oils contain low fatty acid value and they are good sources of edible oil as they have low acid value. These oils also have great potentials as industrially promising oils, with their high saponification and iodine values, they will be good raw materials for bio-lubricant production and for a variety of industrial applications.

Abstract:
The physiocochemical properties of Jatropha curcas kernel oils were characterized as potential biodiesel, including oil yield per plant, seed oil content, kernel oil content, acid value, iodine value, saponification value and cetane number. Twenty-five accessions of Jatropha curcas were used for oil content measurement sranging from 21.14 to 40.66 %with a mean value of 32.85% and Kernels oil 48.59 to 60.45 % with a mean value of 56.28 %. The seed index ranged significantly from a seed weight of 45.45 to 64.45 g. Oil yields per plant ranged from 0.44 to 2.85 kg with a mean value of 1.70 kg per plant, respectively. To understand the properties of acid value, iodine value, saponification and cetane number, experimental physio-chemical studies were performed. Since these properties are critical for determining the current oil condition. The current study confirms that accession seeds performed higher than international saponification value, iodine value and cetane number standards may be an important source for meeting potential energy requirements.

Abstract:
The presence of high free fatty acids (FFA) in the feedstock is a primary concern in biodiesel production. Waste cooking oil (WCO) is a potential environmentally friendly source, but further research is needed to fully characterize its properties. This study successfully explored the effect of FFA on the transesterification reaction and achieved the conversion of triglycerides in WCO to biodiesel under optimal conditions (molar ratio of oil to methanol 1:9, 2 hours, 65°C, catalyst loading 2.0 wt.% of WCO). The results show that for feedstocks with 0-3% FFA content, methyl ester conversion exceeds 90%, while for feedstocks containing 4-6% FFA, the conversion rate is less than 50%. Biodiesel containing 4–6% FFA undergoes saponification reaction during washing, highlighting the need for pretreatment prior to transesterification. In contrast, 0-3% FFA showed no saponification effect. The physicochemical properties of biodiesel from each FFA% feedstock, including acid value, degree of saponification, viscosity, density, and moisture content, were observed and compared with the ASTM D6751 standard. The results show that the acid value is directly proportional to FFA%, while the saponification value is inversely proportional. This study found that other properties such as viscosity, density, and moisture content were not related to biodiesel quality. In contrast, saponification value testing and GC analysis highlighted the impact of FFA percentage in the feedstock on biodiesel production.

Abstract:
This study investigated the influence of storage period and relative humidity on oil extracted from moringa seed using soxhlet extraction method and stored under controlled relative humidity for 90 days using saturated slurry salt method. Samples were taken after 1, 30, 60 and 90 days and the quality parameters like iodine value (IV), acid value (AV), saponification value (SV) and peroxide value (PV) were obtained and compared to FAO/WHO acceptable standards for edible oil. The obtained results showed that the acid value, peroxide value and saponification value increase as relative humidity increases, ranging from 2.47-3.44mg/g, 1.01-1.21Meq/Kg and 172.13-184.36mg/g, respectively, but still falls within the range stated by FAO/WHO for edible oils (4.00 mg/g, 4.00 Meq/Kg and 181±2.60 mg/g) for acid value, peroxide value and saponification value, respectively. Iodine value decreases as relative humidity increases, ranging from 61.28-71.92 g/100g and falls slightly below the standard given by FAO/WHO for edible oils (80-106 g/100g). It was concluded that moringa oil is stable within a wide range of humidity and will have a longer shelf life due to its very low peroxide level.

Abstract:
Industry 4.0 is the name given to the latest evolution in the digitalisation and automation of manufacturing processes. Transitioning to Industry 4.0 is an emerging imperative for chemical processing based manufacturers throughout the world. “Smart” equipments, products and factories are transforming how companies do business, both internally and with suppliers and customers. At the present moment palm oil products particularly, Palm Kernel Oil have become a major feedstock for the oleochemical industries in Malaysia. Since Malaysia accounts for 42% of the global production of palm oil products, it is inevitable that the oleochemical industries has been flourishing and blooming in the last few years. The majority fatty acid found in palm kernel stearin is C12 which can be found in range of 54.8 to 64.0 wt%. But this value is determined by the iodine and saponification value of the palm kernel. The higher the iodine and saponification value, hence the higher the fatty acid composition can be found for higher extraction for oleochemical plant. The iodine value (Wjis) is ranged from 5.8 to 8.1 whereas the saponification value is ranged from 245 to 254 mgKOHg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;oil. Fuzzy Logic system is developed to determine the fatty acid composition for the different range of iodine value and saponification value to ensure kernel with different composition of fatty acid to be separated and produce higher purity of oleochemical substances. This system will ensure ‘SMART’ manufacturing replacing the ‘NON-SMART’ methods where all kernels are grinded randomly and extracting altogether.

Abstract:
This study compares the physicochemical properties of crude and refined palm oil and soybean oil. Key parameters such as acid value, peroxide value, saponification value, free fatty acid, and iodine value were analysed. Crude palm oil exhibited higher acid and saponification values, while refined oils showed improved stability and reduced free fatty acids. Refining reduced oxidation susceptibility in soybean oil but increased the peroxide value in palm oil. The results reveal significant changes in oil quality post-refinement, impacting nutritional and industrial applications. These findings highlight the critical role of refining in improving oil quality and safety for industrial applications. However, the effects of refining vary depending on the oil type.

Abstract:
The research work is focused on the extraction and characterization of the oil and biodiesel obtained from Achee (Blighia sapida) seeds. N-hexane was used as solvent in the extraction of oil from ackee apple seed. The oil was characterized for yield, relative density, free fatty acid value, acid value, iodine value, and saponification value. The values obtained were: oil yield 19.51 %, relative density 0.91 g/cm3, free fatty acid value 1.06 mgKOH/g oil, acid value 2.12 mgKOH/g oil, iodine value 38.36mg iodine/100 g oil and saponification value 195.74 mg KOH/g oil. The results obtained for characterization for fuel properties of ackee seeds oil biodiesel are: boiling point 56°C, flash point 116°C, cloud point 2°C, pour point 4°C. Though the oil yield was low, the figure obtained for acid value affirmed that the ackee seed oil is not useful in the food industry as the extracted oil has a high acid value which makes it unfit for consumption. The oil however, has advantages over other edible seed oils as it is a waste material that is readily available and sustainable; thus, its use in bioresin production will not compete for its use as edible oil. Furthermore, the values obtained for iodine value and saponification value shows that ackee apple seed oil is suitable for bio-resin production. The study has contributed to the broader understanding of utilizing natural resources efficiently and underscores the need for continued exploration into the diverse applications of agricultural by-products.

Abstract:
The seed and leaves of moringa oleifera, belonging to the moringaceae family which have both nutritional and medicinal applications were studied. Phytochemical screening of five extracts of the plant leaves revealed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, glycosides, flavonoids phenols, and steroids. Quantitative determination of the phytocompounds were carried out and results obtained showed that the percentage content of the alkaloids, saponins, phenols and flavonoids were 0.56%, 0.48%, 0.85% and 4.04% respectively. Chemical characterization of the oils showed that the seed oil had 40.20% yield, 1.122mgKOH/g acid value, 22.842g/100g iodine value, 20.57mg/g saponification value, 270.29 saponification equivalent and no peroxide value. The saponification value indicated that the oil was good for soap, lubricating and pharmaceutical industries. Iodine value indicated that the oil is a non-drying type. No peroxide value indicated the absence of oxidation rancidity. The low acid value indicates that the oil is fresh. The result of the analysis of the thin layer chromatographic fractions of ethylacetate leaf extracts shows absorption at ultraviolet region as well as visible region due to presence of conjugated unsaturation and conjugation with non-bonding electrons. The FTIR spectra analysis of leaf extracts indicated the presence of the major functional groups such as O-H, C-O, C=O, N-H and C=C bonds.

This research seeks to determine the effect of storage periods and packaging materials on the proximate and chemical properties of frozen blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) at different exposure time – 0 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours, on arrival at the laboratory. Frozen M. poutassou were bought and stored in a commercial cold room for 12 weeks at -10oC and packed in different packaging materials (Ziploc bag, foil paper and carton) with un-wrapped samples for analysis which lasted 90 days and was conducted every 14 days to measure the moisture, protein, fat, ash, fibre and nitrogen free extract (NFA) content of the fish sample as well as iodine value, peroxide value, saponification value, acid value, free fatty acid and hydroxyl value of fish oil. The result clearly reveals that during storage, the different packaging materials showed significantly (p&lt;0.05) decreasing trend in protein, lipid, ash, fibre and NFA content with increasing storage period and time of analysis except for the moisture content that showed opposite trend. For the chemical properties, the saponification value, peroxide value, free fatty acid, acid value and hydroxyl value showed significantly (p&lt;0.05) increasing trend in the different packaging materials with increasing storage period and time of analysis. While the iodine value decreased with increasing period of storage and time of analysis; the iodine, saponification, peroxide and hydroxyl values were not within the acceptable limits.

Abstract:
Abstract Red palm oil (RPO) is derived from the FFB of palm oil. Carotene in red palm oil or red palm oil cannot be obtained by ordinary processes. Various attempts were made to obtain carotene compounds by various methods of separation (extraction). Therefore, this study attempted to study the effect of the time and rotational speed of the rotary evaporator on the yield of carotenoid concentrates formed in the saponification process so that it would produce optimum carotenoid concentrates seen from the content of carotene and DOBI produced. The sample used was crude palm oil (CPO) which was processed in stages, namely transesterification, solvates micellization (SM), and saponification. The treatment was carried out in the saponification process, namely stirring time for 1.5 hours and 2 hours with each rotating speed of 1800 rpm, 2000 rpm, and 2200 rpm. In each process, carotenoids and DOBI values will increase. In the saponification process, the best treatment that produces high carotene and optimum DOBI is the stirring process at a speed of 1800 rpm for 1.5 hours. The time of stirring in the saponification process has a real effect on the value of carotene and the DOBI index.

Abstract:
Oil quality of <em>Gmelina arborea</em> seed was investigated. The oil was obtained by solvent extraction using petroleum ether. Percentage oil yield was 10.82%. Proximate analyses showed that the seed contained 4.6% ash, 3.86% crude fiber, 2.98%crude protein, 5.71%mosture, and specific gravity of 0.89. Characterization of the oil showed that the oil had acidity of 3.50mgKOH/g, iodine value of 31.11mg/l, saponification value 33.00mg/g, peroxide value 5.70mg/g, and 1.75%free fatty acid. The low acid and free fatty acid values of the oil indicated that it was not prone to oxidative rancidity, thus good edible oil. The iodine and saponification values showed the oil has low degree of unsaturation, thus non-drying oil and has fatty acid of high molecular weight which makes the oil good for making edible fat, margarine and others. Heavy metals were also determined by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopic method. Lead, cadmium, copper, and mercury were not detected while the value of selenium was 0.002ppm which is below the WHO permissible limit.

Abstract:
A comparative study of three chemometric algorithms combined with NIR spectroscopy with the aim of determining the best performing algorithm for quantitative prediction of iodine value, saponification value, free fatty acids content, and peroxide values of unrefined shea butter. Multivariate calibrations were developed for each parameter using supervised partial least squares, interval partial least squares, and genetic-algorithm partial least square regression methods to establish a linear relationship between standard reference and the Fourier transformed-near infrared predicted. Results showed that genetic-algorithm partial least square models were superior in predicting iodine value and saponification value while partial least squares was excellent in predicting free fatty acids content and peroxide values. The nine-factor genetic-algorithm partial least square iodine value calibration model for predicting iodine value yielded excellent ( R2 cal = 0.97), ( R2 val = 0.97), low (root mean square error of cross-validation = 0.26), low (root mean square error of Prediction = 0.23), and (ratio of performance to deviation = 6.41); for saponification value, the nine-factor genetic-algorithm partial least square saponification value calibration model had excellent R2 cal (0.97), R2 val (0.99); low root mean square error of cross-validation (0.73), low root mean square error of Prediction (0.53), and (ratio of performance to deviation = 8.27); while for free fatty acids, the 11-factor partial least square free fatty acids produced very high R2 cal (0.97) and R2 val (0.97) with very low root mean square error of cross-validation (0.03), low root mean square error of Prediction (0.04) and (ratio of performance to deviation = 5.30) and finally for peroxide values, the 11-factor partial least square peroxide values calibration model obtained excellent R2 cal (0.96) and R2val (0.98) with low root mean square error of cross-validation (0.05), low root mean square error of Prediction (0.04), and (ratio of performance to deviation = 5.86).

Biodiesel is a biodegradable, sustainable and clean energy has worldwide attracted renewed and growing interest in topical years, chiefly due to development in biodiesel fuel and ecological pressures which include climatic changes. In this paper, karanja (pongamia pinnata) seed has been studied as a potential source for biodiesel preparation. Karanja oil is extracted from the seed by different methods. Oil properties have been measured by standard methods. Acid catalyzed transesterification, acid catalyzed two-step method and three-step method have been studied for biodiesel preparation from karanja oil. In the three-step method, the first step is saponification followed by acidification to produce free fatty acid (FFA) and finally esterification of FFA to produce biodiesel. In saponification, acidification and esterification reaction, the reaction parameters were optimized. Silica gel was used in both transesterification and esterification to adsorb water, produced in the reaction hence increase the reaction rate. Properties of biodiesel such as specific gravity, FFA, Viscosity, saponification value, iodine value, cloud point, pour point, flash point, cetane index, calorific value etc are measured and compared to conventional diesel fuel and standard biodiesel.Journal of Chemical Engineering, Vol. 29, No. 1, 2017: 24-28

Abstract:
Sustainable recycling of wood chemical production wastes is one of the current issues of modern technology. As a by-product of the pulp and paper industry, tall oil pitch has found application as a potential source of phytosterols. Phytosterols or plant sterols are natural compounds, polycyclic alcohols structurally similar to steroids. Due to their biological activity, phytosterols are used in such areas as pharmaceutics and cosmetology, as functional products, etc., which makes them commercially attractive. This paper considers the stage of saponification of tall oil pitch, which yields free phytosterols from their esters with fatty and resin acids. A central composite design complemented by six star points was chosen to determine the combined effect of the three factors and to plan the minimum number of experiments; the response surface methodology was used to determine the optimal values of the variables. Regression models showing the impact of the basic technological factors (excess alkali, temperature and duration of saponification) on the degree of saponification of phytosterols in saponified tall oil pitch and esters in the obtained extract were developed based on the experimental data. A statistical analysis of the models was carried out. Their validity has been proved by means of analysis of variance. The experimental and predicted values closely correlated. The developed mathematical models in the regression polynomial form enable to find the optimal values of the input process variables using the Minitab software while simultaneously reaching the maximum degree of saponification (98,1 %) with the minimum value of the ether number in the extract (4 mg KOH/g): saponification temperature – 121.7 °C, process duration – 3.18 h, and excess alkali – 100 %. Thus, reliable models for predicting the degree of saponification of phytosterols and the ester number in the extract were obtained. These models can be used in industrial saponification of tall oil pitch. For citation: Korshunov A.O., Lavrenteva E.A., Lazarev M.A., Radbil’ A.B.

Soap is sodium or potassium salt of fatty acid produced by saponification reaction using sodium or potassium hydroxide. It is used for cleaning, bathing, and washing. Soaps were produced from bleached palm oil (BPO) and&nbsp;<em>Moringa oleifera&nbsp;&nbsp;</em>&nbsp;seed oil using the cold process method with slight modification. The physicochemical properties (acid value, saponification value, peroxide value, iodine value and moisture content) of the oil were determined and it showed that the values are within the standard specifications.&nbsp; The quality of the soaps were also assessed by determining the&nbsp; physicochemical properties such as; free caustic alkali, matter insoluble in alcohol (MIA), pH, total fatty matter (TFM), cleaning properties, washing properties and foam stability. All the results obtained showed that the soaps analyzed are good soaps safe for the skin.

Abstract:
The physicochemical properties of six imported and one locally produced edible vegetable oils (soybean oil, sunflower oil, sunlit oil, hayat oil, avena oil, USA vegetable oil and Niger oil) purchased from Bahir Dar city, Ethiopia, were examined for their compositional quality. All the oil samples were characterized for specific gravity, moisture content, color, relative viscosity, refractive indices, ash content, peroxide value, saponification value, smoke point, acid value, free fatty acid value and trace metals contents using established methods. The result clearly indicates that some of the oil samples exhibited unacceptable value when compared with physicochemical parameters recommended by the Codex Alimentations Commission of FAO/WHO and the specification of Ethiopian standards. The contents of nickel (Ni), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) in seven samples were determined using ICP-OES and their concentrations were found in the range of 1.8-20.4, 45.8-82.2 and 136.04-445.0 mg/kg, respectively.

Abstract:
This research investigates the physicochemical, phytochemical, and fatty acid composition of Neocaryamacrophylla seed oil, sourced from Illela, Sokoto State, Nigeria. Employing a soxhlet extraction method with n-hexane, the study determined a saponification value of 153.33 mgKOH/g, iodine value of 33.07 gI2/100g, and a peroxide value of 45.5 mgmeq/kg. Qualitative phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of tannins, saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, and terpenoids, aligning with the antimicrobial attributes noted in Anacardiumoccidentale L. seeds oil. Fatty acid profiling identified oleic acid as the predominant monounsaturated fatty acid (42.46%), while linoleic and arachidonic acids constituted the main polyunsaturated fatty acids (35.08%). The study's findings suggest potential applications of Neocaryamacrophylla seed oil in soap production, owing to its high saponification value, and its stability, indicated by the MUFA/PUFA ratio. This research contributes valuable insights into the underexplored properties of Neocaryamacrophylla seed oil, holding implications for industries seeking alternative oil sources.

Abstract:
Cashew nut samples from three geographical locations of Nigeria viz: Anambra state, Oyo state and Kogi state were obtained and analysis were carried out on the nuts and oil. The proximate composition of the cashew nuts was determined. The extracted oil was analyzed for both physical (colour, specific gravity and refractive index) and chemical (saponification value, iodine value, peroxide value and free fatty acid value) properties. The vitamin content of the samples was also determined. The protein content ranged from 23.42% &ndash; 26.39%, the moisture content ranged from 5.66% - 6.17%, ash content ranged from 3.03% - 3.18% and the crude fibre content ranged from 5.60% - 6.12%. The fat content of the cashew nut from Oyo state was the highest (42.03%) followed by the cashew nut from Kogi state (40.72%) while the cashew nut from Anambra state had the least value (40.15%). The refractive index ranged from 1.452 &ndash; 1.463nD 20&ordm;C and specific gravity ranged from 0.848 &ndash; 0.860g/cm<sup>3</sup>. The oil from the three samples had a light yellow colour. The saponification value ranged from 233.19 &ndash; 237.00mgKOH/g oil; iodine value 83.65 &ndash; 86.93mgKI/100g oil; peroxide value 19.75 &ndash; 20.34meqO<sub>2</sub>/Kg oil and free fatty acid 0.05046 &ndash; 0.05601%. The mineral content of the samples correlated with the values from literature. Statistical analysis was carried out using the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) at 95% confidence limit and Duncan test. There was significant difference between the Vitamin A and B12 content, Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, moisture, fat, fibre, ash, carbohydrate and free fatty acid content of the samples while there was no significant difference in the Vitamin B12 and B6, Iron, Zinc, Iodine value and Saponification value of the samples. The cashew nuts from the different locations demonstrated high potential as industrial materials.

Abstract:
The saponification value of fats and oils is one of the most common quality indices, reflecting the mean molecular weight of the constituting triacylglycerols. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectra of fats and oils display specific resonances for the protons from the structural patterns of the triacylglycerols (i.e., the glycerol backbone), methylene (-CH2-) groups, double bonds (-CH=CH-) and the terminal methyl (-CH3) group from the three fatty acyl chains. Consequently, chemometric equations based on the integral values of the 1H-NMR resonances allow for the calculation of the mean molecular weight of triacylglycerol species, leading to the determination of the number of moles of triacylglycerol species per 1 g of fat and eventually to the calculation of the saponification value (SV), expressed as mg KOH/g of fat. The algorithm was verified on a series of binary mixtures of tributyrin (TB) and vegetable oils (i.e., soybean and rapeseed oils) in various ratios, ensuring a wide range of SV. Compared to the conventional technique for SV determination (ISO 3657:2013) based on titration, the obtained 1H-NMR-based saponification values differed by a mean percent deviation of 3%, suggesting the new method is a convenient and rapid alternate approach. Moreover, compared to other reported methods of determining the SV from spectroscopic data, this method is not based on regression equations and, consequently, does not require calibration from a database, as the SV is computed directly and independently from the 1H-NMR spectrum of a given oil/fat sample.

Introduction: Owing to increase demand for safer and health promoting vegetable oils, a number of potential sources are being explored by researchers. Materials and Methods: In this study, oil was extracted using Soxhlet from Sokoto locally grown Cucumis melo L (honeydew melon). Physical and chemical properties (colour, moisture, pH, specific gravity, refractive index, acid value, iodine value, saponification value and peroxide value) of the oil were determined using standard analytical methods by Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC). Results: The results showed the percentage yield of the oil to be 27.46%. Physically, the oil was yellowish in colour, liquid at room temperature, with pH of 6.2 (0.01), specific gravity of 0.89 (0.32), and refractive index of 3.62 (1.0). The saponification, acid, iodine and peroxide values of the oil were 45.81 (5.19), 9.16 (0.21), 64.80 (4.31) and 10.50 (1.50) respectively. Conclusion: The results suggest that the oil has a potential for use as vegetable oil, in industries and, subject to further evaluation of the contents, health promoting purposes.

Abstract:
Magonia pubescens is a tree species originally from the Brazilian Cerrado that bears fruit with winged seeds from which fixed oil can be extracted. This study aimed to analyze the physical and chemical properties of the oil extracted from these seeds and the biodiesel produced thereof. Methods from the Adolfo Lutz Institute, American Oil Chemists Society, and American Society for Testing and Materials were used. Seven fatty acids (oleic, arachidic, gadoleic, palmitic, palmitoleic, linoleic, and stearic acids) were found in the oil. Acidity level (1.119 mg KOH·g-1), iodine value (77.36 cg I2·g-1), saponification value (133.36 mg KOH·g-1), density (0.8796 g·cm-3), and refractive index (1.3348nD) were low when compared to the high peroxide value (26.14 meq·kg-1), viscosity (101.46 mm²·s-¹), and moisture (0.88%) of other oils and fats used for biodiesel production. Biodiesel showed density (0.8484 g·cm-3), viscosity (29.62 mm-2·s-1), acidity level (0.752 mg KOH·g-1), and saponification value (148.89 mg KOH·g-1).

Abstract The major objective of this study is to report physico-chemical properties of sunflower oil samples collected from different stages of the technological process for sunflower oil refining for food industry. The samples of oil were crude oil, washed oil, bleached oil and deodorized oil. The physico-chemical properties of sunflower oil experimentally determined were density, saponification value (SV), iodine value (IV), and acid value (AV). It was found that the density of sunflower oil remains approximately constant over the different stages of the manufacturing flow of cooking oil, except the crude oil. The acid value significantly decreases from crude oil (2.588) to deodorized oil (0.366). The iodine value and saponification value of the different samples of the sunflower oil corresponding to different stages of oil processing varies slightly. The capacity of different models to accurately correlate and/or predict the density of vegetable oil was tested. The density of sunflower oil can be accurately estimated from its SV and IV or with an empirical equation, when density data are available.

Abstract:
This study examined the physicochemical properties and phytochemical composition of oils from sandbox (Hura crepitans), melon (Citrullus colocynthis L) and watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) seeds. Physicochemical and phytochemical analyses of the oils were carried out using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Association of Official Analytical Chemist (AOAC) standards procedures. Sandbox oil had highest saponification value, iodine value, acid value, ester value, viscosity, cloud point and pour point with lowest moisture content, free fatty acid, peroxide value, flash point and fire point when compare with oils from melon and water melon seeds. Oils from melon and water melon seeds have low acid value, which means it can be used as a good source of edible oil. The phytochemical screening of the oils revealed the presence of saponins, deoxysugar, terpenoids, cardinolides and steroids. These results revealed that oils from sandbox seed, melon and water melon seed have great potentials as industrially promising oils, with their high saponification and iodine values, they will be good raw materials for bio-lubricant production and for a variety of industrial applications.

Abstract:
African Locust bean (Parkiabiglobosa) has been a fermented condiment in Africa from the antiquity used in soup preparation to bring out the required flavor and taste. This research focused on the effect of fermentation on the oil from Parkiabiglobosa when wholly consumed or extracted for home and industrial purposes. Oil from unfermented biglobosahas the highest acid value (6.17&plusmn;0.02mgkOH/g) while oil from fermented has the lowest acid value (5.61&plusmn;0.01mgkOH/g). These showed that both oils are suitable for edible purposes irrespective of the toxicity of the raw flour sample.The saponification values were 161.00mgKoH/g and 187.93mgKoH/g for oil from unfermented and fermented, the higher saponification value in the oil from fermented sample to lower value of oil from unfermented parkiabiglobosa Suggested that fermented Parkiabiglobosa oil had low level of impurities to raw oil sample.Peroxide value ranged from 9.94 &ndash; 13.4m&epsilon;q/kg-1, This resulted to low acid taste in in both oil and low level of rancidity.The result obtained from the study indicated that oil from fermented parkiabiglobosa are good for soap making due to higher saponification value, and could be used for both domestic and industrial purposes. Also, raw oil sample can be employed in the manufacture of, oil paints, cosmeticsand also serve as edible oil due to the level of the unsaturationas indicated in high iodine value and as non-drying oil as observed from the physical properties.The mineral composition as indicated in table2 for the oil contributes to its nutritional values. The values obtained for the raw oil sample indicated higher values in potassium, sodium, calcium, iron, lead, manganese and copper except Magnesium of closed values (190.100 to 190.200). These indicate the advantage of the nutritional value of raw oil sample to fermented oil sample.
