Analysis of Parameters for Fatty Acid Methyl Esters Production from Refined Palm Oil for Use as Biodiesel in the Single- and Two-stage Processes
In the present study, the production of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) for use as biodiesel from the alkaline transesterification of refined palm oil (RPO) was found to occur optimally using a molar RPO (triglyceride) to methanol ratio of 1:6, in the presence of 1% NaOH (catalyst) in methanol (w/v)...
