PENGGANDAAN SKALA PRODUKSI SABUN CAIR DARI DAUR ULANG MINYAK GORENG BEKAS
ABSTRACT: The aim of this
study was to know the effect of the increasing volume in saponification process
on the 88 l reactor on the soap quality and efficiency of the process. The experiment
consisted of 2 sub-experiments. The first sub-experiment was the factorial
experiment with 2 factors, the time of stirring (60, 90 and 120 minutes) and
the ratio of water to soap (2:1; 3:1, and 4:1 w/w). The second sub-experiment
was scaling up with mixed material volume of 5, 15 and 25 liters. The effectiveness index showed that the best
soap quality for laboratory scale obtained at 90 minutes stirring time and
ratio of water to soap of 2:1 (w/w).
Meanwhile, scaling up showed that the increasing volume tended to
decrease the quality of the product, although it still met the industrial
standard of liquid soap.
