USE, TREATMENT AND RECOVERY OF RESIDUAL FRYING OILS: A PRACTICAL APPROACH

Abstract

The growing concern about the environmental impact of human activities, such as the improper disposal of cooking oil, motivates the search for sustainable solutions, such as the production of biodiesel and soaps. Chemistry teaching can be enriched with practical activities that integrate theory and practice, promoting learning and critical thinking. School laboratories, which are essential for the development of these activities, must follow strict safety standards to ensure a safe and efficient environment. In addition, it is essential that students and teachers are trained in safety standards to avoid accidents. Awareness of these practices contributes to academic training and environmental preservation.
