Oleosome Oil Storage in the Mesocarp of Two Avocado Varieties
Journal of Oleo Science, 2019 Studies on avocado oil have focused on the most common commercial cultivars, Hass, Fuerte, and Bacon, rather than the less common varieties, P. americana var. drymifolia and P. americana var. americana, even though the drymifolia variety has a higher oil content and the americana variety is the most common avocado grown in the tropics.

Modelling microwave heating of an oil palm mesocarp [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 An oil palm mill often uses steam in sterilization and fruit detachment processes. Consequently, a large amount of wastewater is produced. To reduce the wastewater, microwave (MW) heating of oil palm fruits has been studied and positive results were reported in open literature.

Adsorption and Dispersion of Nickel on Oil Palm Mesocarp Fiber
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2014 The investigation on the adsorption of metal from aqueous solution onto a biomass is important for several reasons. First, biomass has been widely used as an economical sorbent to remove heavy metals from industrial wastewater. Second, studies have shown that impregnation of metals onto a biomass helps improving thermal conversion of the biomass, for ...
