                    [Summary] => There’s a "sleeping giant" within the cashew industry.


It’s called cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), whose development is expected to gain momentum soon in view of R&D headways so far achieved.


Consider: The Philippines produces 120 million kilos of cashew nut and 20 million kilos of CNSL every year.

                    [Summary] => The shell liquid of local cashew nuts have good potentials as materials in the manufacture of industrial products.


For instance, its resin can remove poisonous metals from wastewater (also called "cation exchange resin"). The varnish derived from it performs as well as the commercial type and its wood glue conforms with international standards.
