Improved yield of solvent free enzymatic methanolysis of palm and jatropha oils blended with castor oil
In this work, castor oil was blended with palm and jatropha oils to improve the yield of solvent-free enzymatic methanolysis reaction. Transesterification reactions were carried out with stoichiometric ratio of methanol to oil and using lipozyme TL IM as catalyst at 45 °C and 200 rpm for 24 h. By a...
