  • When was crude oil produced from cottonseed?
  • Due to the progress in cotton ginning industry and the increase of cottonseed production as a byproduct of this industry, the production of a crude oil from cottonseed has been established in USA in 1799 (Jennings, 2010).
  • How has the production of cottonseed oil changed in Egypt?
  • According to that Figure, it is quite clear that the production of cottonseed oil in Egypt has been decreased greatly over the years from 1969 whereby it was 125 thousand tons oil in 1969 to 10 thousand tons only in 2019. 2.
  • How many coconuts were produced in 2022?
  • The estimated total world production of coconuts in 2022 was 62,409,431 metric tonnes, down 0.6% from 62,791,068 tonnes in 2021. Dependent territories are shown in italics.
  • Which oil is imported by Egypt?
  • It is clear that palm oil is the major oil imported by Egypt whereby it represents about 60% of total imported oils in 2018 while the quantity imported from corn oil is the least being about 3% in the same year. Palm oil is imported from Indonesia and Malaysia after being refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD).
  • Where does crude oil come from?
  • Crude oil is pumped from wells on land or on offshore platforms and transported by pipelines or tanker ships to refineries where it can be turned into useful oil products, mainly fuels and industrial chemicals.
  • How much oil does Egypt eat a year?
  • Currently, Egypt consumes about 2.5 million tons of edible oils annually. Only, about 48.5 thousand tons of this quantity is produced by oilseed extraction in local extraction plants. About half of this quantity is produced mainly from cottonseed produced as a byproduct of cotton ginning industry.
