Abstract:
Palm oil is one of the most consumed and manufactured oils in the world.
This inexpensive, easy-to-produce and highly stable oil is used for a wide variety
of foods, cosmetics, hygiene products, and can also be used as a source of biofuels
or biodiesel. Most palm oil is manufactured in Asia, Africa and South America
because oil palm trees require warm temperatures, sunlight, and high rainfall to
maximize their production. Pig oil is a fat that is taken from the fatty tissue of pig
animals. Pig oil can be obtained by means of extraction using the dry rendering
method is a way of extracting animal oil by heating without water. This research
uses the complete random draft (RAL) factorial with (2) two repeats. Factor I:
Solvent concentration (K) consists of 4 levels namely: K1 = 20%, K2 = 30%, K3
= 40% and K4 = 50%. Factor II: Maceration time (W) consists of 4 levels: W1 =
06 hours, W2 = 12 hours, W3 = 18 hours and W4 = 24 hours. The observed
parameters include type weights, acid numbers, iodine numbers and total
microbes from the results of statistical print analysis on each Parameter: the
maceration time has a very noticeable effect on the P. < 0.01 level of the type
weight, number of IoD and total microbes The effect of n-Heksan concentration
has a distinct effect on the level of p < 0.01 of the type weight, acid number,
number of IoD and total microbial and give a different effect not real p > 0.05 of
acid number. The effect of n-Heksan concentration and maceration time on
microbial growth which from the influence of N-Heksan concentration used has a
different influence very real level p < 0.01 in palm oil, pork oil and palm oil
mixed with pig oil. However, N-Heksan itself does not give any impact on
microbial growth.
