| Abstract | Various alternative packaging systems for hydrogenated oil and refined groundnut oil were tried in order to find out a suitable substitute for the currently used 18 1. square tin which results in transit damage and consequent loss by leakage of the contents. Of these, both HDPE jerrycan and GI drums both of 20 1. capacity have been found to be suitable from the point of view of keeping quality of the oil and transport worthiness. However, lack of stacking facility and recycling ability disfavour the HDPF. jerry can. The GI drums on the other hand has no such disadvantages and can be easily cleaned and recycled several times and its use works out to be more economical compared to the square tin when reused atleast three times or more. |
