“…Vegetables are increasingly used as the base oil in lubricants due to the associated risk of mineral oil to the immediate environment and health risks. The three long chains of fatty acids known as triglycerides in the chemical composition of vegetable oils are what provide the oil with its desired lubricating characteristics [20, 21]. Vegetable oils are the greatest substitute for mineral oil because of their high viscosity index and low volatility.…”

This study is focused on the performance evaluation of three cutting lubricants, which are neem, palm kernel and mineral oil in the turning of AISI 1045 with MQL. Optimization of machining parameters with multi-response signals using Taguchi-based grey relational analysis was done. For experimental design, tests were developed using Taguchi's L 9 orthogonal array and the signal-to-noise ratio was obtained using the smaller-the-better approach to achieve the optimal combination. Performance indicators including surface roughness and cutting temperature were measured throughout the machining process. Neem oil performed best among the oils for surface roughness while mineral oil outperformed them all for cutting temperature, according to the experimental results. The optimum spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut for neem, palm kernel and mineral oils are 870 rev/min, 0.25 mm/rev and 1.25 mm; 870 rev/min, 0.10 mm/rev and 0.75 mm; and 415 rev/min, 0.10 mm/rev and 1.00 mm, respectively.

“…Against mineral oil, there was hardly any temperature difference-about 2%. Alaba et al [24] also found that using palm kernel oil during MQL machining of AISI 1039 steel resulted in an improvement of 12% over mineral oil. The structure of plants with various fatty acid content can be used to explain the behavior of palm kernel oil.…”

“…The authors discovered that compared to cutting fluid based on castor oil, Karanja oil offered 30.28% less Sr According to their study, dilution affected the SR values that were obtained, and lesser dilution decreased the SR by 20.8%. In an experiment by Alaba et al [24], PKO was chemically extracted and used to turn AISI 1039 steel. The CT and SR of PKO improved by 12% and 44%, respectively, in comparison to mineral oil.…”

The disadvantages of the conventional cutting fluids such as mineral oil have prompted the search for eco-friendly cutting fluids. Vegetable oils have often been recommended as environmentally friendly substitutes for traditional mineral oil. The current study examined the performance of palm kernel oil (PKO) and its mineral oil during the turning of AISI 304 steel using the minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) technique. Six litres of crude PKO were extracted from palm kernel seeds through a mechanical extraction technique. Taguchi L9 (3)3 orthogonal array was considered for the experiment. The depth of cut (DC), feed rate (FR), and spindle speed (SS) are the cutting parameters while cutting temperature (CT) and surface roughness (SR) are the response characteristics. Experimental results showed that the mineral oil outperformed the PKO in terms of SR with an improvement of 48.2%. The improvement of PKO over mineral oil is approximately 0.89% in terms of cutting temperature. The highest turning temperature of mineral oil was 67.333 °C, while that of PKO was 67.8 °C. In general, the performance of PKO shows it can be a good replacement for mineral oil if produced industrially with adequate additives. The grey relational analysis (GRA) showed that the optimum DC, FR, and SS for palm kernel and mineral oils are 1.25 mm, 0.25 mm rev−1 and 870 rev min−1, and 1.25 mm, 0.10 mm rev−1, and 870 rev min−1, respectively. The results of this study demonstrated an experimental basis for the application of PKO minimal quantity lubrication turning and validated the efficacy of the integrated Taguchi-grey relational analysis (TGRA) optimization approach.

“…The food industry seeks to generate value-added and alternative products to meet growing global demand for oil and natural sources of phytonutrients, health awareness, tackle challenges of managing waste materials from food processing and exploring uses of underutilized plant materials, by-products, and waste (Aryee et al, 2022). Oils derived from plants have been utilized in various food and non-food applications (Ahmad et al, 2023;Akonjuen & Aryee, 2023;Alaba et al, 2023). Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is a tropical plant grown for its clusters of fruits from which palm oil is extracted from its pulp (mesocarp), and palm kernel oil (PKO) from the kernel cake by-product (seed/nut).…”

Hexane (HEX) and dichloromethane (DCM) have been used to extract oils from various sources due to their expansive solubility and low volatility that ease removal at low temperatures. However, environmental and health concerns make them undesirable solvents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extraction efficiency and physicochemical characteristics of palm kernel oil (PKO) extracted with the addition of acetone in HEX‐acetone (1:1, vol/vol) and DCM‐acetone (1:1, vol/vol) mixtures as an alternative to DCM and HEX alone. PKO extracted with co‐solvent systems had better quality characteristics compared with single solvent extracts. The oil recovered, free fatty acid content, peroxide value and other quality characteristics, and thermal properties were within the range for PKO, and similar oils as stipulated in standards. Monounsaturated fatty acid content in PKO was up to 70% of which lauric acid was the most abundant (48%–52%). A total of 50 volatile compounds were identified by GC–MS in all the extracts including amide (1), alcohol (1), aldehydes (2), ketones (3), acids (6), esters (6) and hydrocarbons (31) with higher numbers of volatiles in the HEX extracts compared to the DCM extracts. Dodecanoic acid, hexanal, and 2‐undecanone were the most abundant acid, aldehyde, and ketone, respectively. Principal component analysis (PCA) differentiated the volatiles identified on the polar and non‐polar columns with 88.2% and 8.8%, and 67.3% and 19.6% of the variation accounted for by PC1 and PC2, respectively, with several common volatile components forming a cluster from all the solvents used.
