Modelling and optimizing the transesterification process of shea butter via CD-BaCl-IL catalyst using soft computing algorithms

Shortage and environmental threats posed by fossil fuel have become a critical issue requiring searching for alternative energy sources. This study utilized clay-doped barium chloride and ionic liquid (CD-BaCl-IL) as a catalyst for optimizing biodiesel production from shea butter. 10% barium chlorid...
