Abstract

We don’t know exactly the beginning of this old industry but it is certain that soap manufactory has an old story. Of clay Sumeriërs paintings dating before 2000 BC describing their activities already mentioned the use of a kind of "soap paste." In the eighth century, soap production was introduced in Spain and Italy. In the ninth century, soap based on olive oil was developed in France and more specifically in Marseille. Moringa oleifera, often referred to simply as Moringa, is a species of small tree that can grow up to 10 m of the family Moringaceae. In the Sahel, Moringa oleifera leaves are eaten as vegetables and those of Moringa stenopetala are the basic meal of the Konso people in Ethiopia. Nutritional analysis showed that Moringa oleifera leaves are richer in vitamins, minerals and protein than most vegetables. They contain as much potassium as bananas. Our study is devoted to the preparation of soap from a mixture of Moringua leaves and olive oil with soda. The results found show that we can prepare soap using leaves of Moringua (rich in potassium) olive oil and soda with good properties (foaming, emulsifying, wetting and detergent).
