The main purpose of this research is to convert palm acid oil (PAO) into high quality 2nd generation biodiesel fuel (2ndgen.BDF). In this study, we aim to promote decarboxylation (DCX), decarbonylation (DCN), hydrodeoxygenation (HDO), and catalytic cracking (CC) reactions under low pressure using a...
