Process intensification of biodiesel synthesis via ultrasound-assisted in situ esterification of Jatropha oil seeds
BACKGROUND: Non-edible oil such as Jatropha oil has high free fatty acids (FFAs) content. Therefore, acid esterification is a suitable route to reduce its FFA content to an acceptable limit (2 FFA%) before being subjected to further transesterification. In the present study, Jatropha seeds were util...
