Cashew production in India generates large amounts of waste that can be used. The waste contains cardanol oil, which can be extracted through a process that involves grinding the waste, heating it to separate the oil, and refining the extracted oil. This extracted cardanol oil has applications as a raw material for resins, paints, and varnishes.
