Extraction of Caffeine from Tea Leaves using Dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) Abstract The extraction of caffeine (C8H10N402) was done in two parts. The first procedure used was solid-liquid extraction which was done by boiling the tea leaves in 100 ml. distilled water for 5-10 minutes. The filtrate was acquired and was extracted again by liquid-liquid extraction using dichloromethane (CH2Cl2). The combined DCM (CH2Cl2) was washed and dried to yield crude caffeine. The crude caffeine was purified

crude oil are non-renewable resources. They take so long to form that they cannot be replaced once they have all been used up. This means that these fossil fuels are likely to become more expensive as they begin to run out. Petrol‚ diesel and other fuels produced from crude oil make a range of harmful substances when they are burned‚ including: carbon dioxide carbon monoxide water vapour particulates (solid particles) sulfur dioxide oxides of nitrogen or NOx. Biodiesel Biodiesel is made from rapeseed

Alternative Fuels People in America do not realize the fact that driving their vehicle is one of the regular activities that they do that has one of the largest impacts on the earth. With more and more cars in use each day‚ the more fossil fuels are called for. Fossil fuels are natural fuels that were formed from the remains of living organisms. These fossil fuels typically take millions of years to be formed. Since most fossil fuels are being imported due to it taking a huge amount of time

cooking oil from moringa seeds. Conclusions After the data have been collected‚ analyzed and interpreted‚ the researchers therefore conclude that: 1. There is a significant difference between the moringa oil and the commercial oil in terms of quality. This proved that moringa seed is effective as an alternative in producing quality cooking oil. 2. Set-up A which is moringa oil yielded a higher mean based on the evaluation done by randomly selected people than Set-up B which is commercial oil. This

ABSTRACT The objective of this research is to produce second generation biodiesel from Pongomia Pinnata seed oil using a microwave assisted transesterification. Pongomia Pinnata seed oil is obtained after the mechanical extraction of rubber seed is using Soxhlet Extractor. The alcohol used in this research is methanol which is used to react with Pongomia Pinnata seed oil with a base or acid catalyst to produce methyl ester. Acid catalyst used in this research is potassium hydroxide

SMALL-SCALE PRODUCTION OF ESSENTIAL OILS Essential oils are the volatile oils distilled from aromatic plant materials. The odour and flavour of these oils is usually dependent upon these oxygenated compounds. Many oils are terpenoids‚ a few oils are benzene derivatives.

In this observation‚ we have come up to conduct research study‚ on computer printer ink from sugar beets‚ which is most useful and environmental friendly than commercial ink. Sugar beets’ Scientific name is Beta Vulgaris. Sugar beets are small herbaceous plants with broad dark-green leaves. Its underground taproot matures in 50-60 days of sowing and weighs about 100 to 150 g. Sugar beet contains certain unique pigment in the root as well

Thus‚ this study entitled Chicken Bones and Malunggay (Moringa oleifera) Stalks as Plant Growth Enhancer aims to integrate new approaches of enhancing the growth of the plant by utilizing the chicken bones and malunggay plants. In line with the aforementioned discussion‚ the study aims to know the potential of chicken bones and malunggay stalks as plant growth enhancer and compare the quality of the experimental plant growth enhancer to that
