PYROLYSIS OF SHEA BUTTER SHELL TO PRODUCE BIO-BASED PRODUCTS
ABSTRACT This research work focused on the production of bio-based products and response optimization of bio-oil yield operating parameters from shea butter shell. The Thermogravimetry Analysis (TGA) was used to determine the thermal stability of the shea butter shell and found to be stable at temperature 400 °C. Also, for the bio-char produced, it was found to be stable at temperature 700 °C. Design of Experiment (DOE) was applied to ...
