Changes in oxidation indices and minor components of low free fatty acid and freshly extracted crude palm oils under two different storage conditions
This article reports on the changes of oxidation indices and minor components of low free fatty acid (FFA) and freshly extracted crude palm oils after storage at ambient (28 ± 1 C) and 60 C for 77 days. The changes in peroxide value (PV), FFA, extinction coefficient at 233 and 269 nm (K 233 and K 269), bleachability index (DOBI), carotene and vitamin E contents were monitored. PV, FFA, K 233 and K 269 of both oil samples increased as storage progressed while the values of carotene and vitamin E contents decreased. At the end of storage period at 60 °C, the carotene content of low FFA crude palm oil was 4.24 ppm. The storage conditions used led to the loss of entire vitamin E fractions of both oil samples as well as a reduction in DOBI values except for freshly extracted crude palm oil stored at ambient temperature
Dynamic of solitary wave solutions in some nonlinear pseudoparabolic models and Dodd–Bullough–Mikhailov equation
In this study, the modified exp (-Phi(eta))-expansion function method is used in constructing some solitary wave solutions to the Oskolkov-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers, one-dimensional Oskolkov equations and the Dodd-Bullough-Mikhailov equation. We successfully construct some singular solitons and singular periodic waves solutions with the hyperbolic, trigonometric and exponential function structures to these three nonlinear models. Under the choice of some suitable values of the parameters involved, we plot the 2D and 3D graphics to some of the obtained solutions in this study. All the obtained solutions in this study verify their corresponding equation. We perform all the computations in this study with the help of the Wolfram Mathematica software. The obtained solutions in this study may be helpful in explaining some practical physical problems
