Abstract

Fish oil especially from sardine has contain great omega 3, but it needs purification because has poor quality. Fish oil purification can be done by using various types of adsorbents. One of them are scallop shells and carp scales. The purpose of this study is to choose the best type of active filter (adsorbent) to improve the quality of fish oil. Sardine oil is purified using an active filter (adsorbent) of carp scales, scallop shells and attapulgite. The result this study show that the best treatment of adsorbent types is carp scales+scallop shell adsorbent.

Keywords:

Active filter, adsorbent, refining, sardine oil, secondary primary oxidation,
