Soap Manufacturing Technology

Today, the bar soap industry is thriving in much of the world, especially in the developing countries. There, toilet and laundry bar soaps are produced in large quantities and there are many producers besides the large multinational firms. In the rest of the world "boutique" soap manufacturers are producing elite bar soaps for a select group of healthy "green" consumers. These soap producers as well as anyone with an interest in soap technology will benefit from the new AOCS Press Soap Manufacturing Technology book. Never before has there been a collection of soap-related information from AOCS SODEOPEC Conferences of 2006 and 2008 (SODEOPEC=Soaps and Detergents, Oleochemicals and Personal Care Products). The pivotal information from these meetings appears in this indispensible book.
