PRODUCRTION OF DETERGENT

         Detergent is a water-soluble agent which is combines with the impurities and dirt to make it more soluble.It is a mixture of SURFACTANT and a cleaning agent that is use or helps to remove dirt and grease from POROUS surfaces such as FABRICS,CLOTHE and NON-Porous surfaces such as TREATED WOOD,PLASTICS

HOW TO MAKE DETERGENT   

     Before DETERGENT can be made,it requires some CHEMICALS AND QUANTITY of each of the CHEMICALS

CHEMICALS AND QUANTITY

1. PALM KERNEL OIL P.K.O ----- 4LITRES OF PALM KERNEL P.K.O AS THE QUANTITY
2. CAUSTIC SODA ---------------- 1KG OF CAUSTIC SODA AS THE QUANTITY 
3. SODA ASH ----------------------- 1KG OF SODA ASH AS THE QUANTITY
4. HYDROGEN PEROXIDE(H2O2) ---- 1/4LITRE OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE AS THE QUANTITY
5.  AMMONIA --------------------------- VERY LITTLE
6. INDUSTRIAL SALT ------------------- 1/2KG OF INDUSTRIAL SALT AS THE QUANTITY
7. COLOUR ------------------------------- AS DESIRED
8. FRAGRANCE -------------------------- AS DESIRED 
9. FOAMING AGENT -------------------- 1LITRE

PRODUCTION STEPS

1. Get two separate bowls each containing 3litres of water
2. Pour the caustic soda into one bowl and soda ash into another bowl and leave it for about 72hours or 3days.so after 72days or 3days,
3. Pour P.K.O into a big bowl,add the caustic soda water and soda ash water and then stir very well 
4. Add hydrogen peroxide,ammonia,industrial salt and the foaming agent then stir it 
5. Add colour and fragrance and stir it very well 
6. Spread it under the sun in other to get dry.At this stage,the liquid mixture will turn solid upon drying 
7. At this stage,break the solid into pieces and the grate it or dry to powder and sieve
