Optimization of base-catalyzed ethyl ester production from palm oil
Plant-based ethyl esters can be used directly as biodiesel or as a bio-resource for other industries such as lubricant and detergents. In this work, production of ethyl ester from chemical transesterification of palm oil with ethanol using sodium ethoxide as catalyst has been optimized by Box-Behnke...
