SINTESIS POLIETERSULFON (PES) MEMBRAN DAN KAJIANNYA UNTUK PEMEKATAN BETA KARO…
Crude palm oil (CPO) is produced from the palm fruit's pulp by pressing. One of the components that have an essential role in CPO is carotenoids. This research was conducted to synthesize the polyethersulfone (PES) membrane and determine the appropriate PES membrane characteristics in concentrating betacarotene of palm oil. Three kinds of PES membranes were prepared by phase inversion method, namely PES I with the composition of PES polymer 22% and N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) 78 (w/w), PES II …
