Methanol recovery during transesterification of palm oil in a TiO2/Al2O3 membrane reactor: Experimental study and neural network modeling
High quality palm oil biodiesel can be produced by combination of alkali transesterification and separation processes in a TiO2/Al2O3 membrane reactor. Due to the small molecular size, methanol molecules are able to pass through the membrane along with the products. Since methanol is one of the proc...
