In-situ supercritical methanol transesterification for production of biodiesel from Jatropha curcas L. (JCL) seeds was successfully carried out via 1000 ml hightemperature high-pressure batch-wise reactor system in an absence of catalyst. In order to maximize the percent of crude biodiesel and FAMEs...
