The yield of recovered oil using sodium alginate was 91.81%, outperforming corn starch at 88.25%.
Optimal extraction parameters included times of 60 and 80 min and temperatures of 50 and 60°C.
The study utilized a comparative evaluation of bio-flocculants to maximize recovery of refined lubricant from waste oil.
Results highlight the potential for environmentally friendly methods to improve sustainability in oil recovery.
