HUBUNGAN SUHU DAN KADAR KOTORAN CPO PADA STASIUN KLARIFIKASI

Abstract

The quality of Crude Palm Oil is known from the level of impurities and oil losses. Many factors cause the quality of CPO is not as expected, one of which is temperature. This study aims to know the relationship between temperature and levels of impurities. The research method used is descriptive corellation research and then look for the correlation coefficient to see the relationship between these two variables. The results showed that at a temperature of 900C - 950C, an impurity contents of 0.22% - 0.37% and r = -0.9584 which means that there is a strong negative relationship, namely the temperature. higher, the lower the level of impurities.
