Kinetics of reactive extraction/in situ transesterification of rapeseed oil

The kinetics of “reactive extraction” or “in situ transesterification” of rapeseed with methanol to produce biodiesel were investigated. It is hypothesised that in situ transesterification occurs through the reaction of triglyceride and methanol inside the seed particles followed by diffusion of mon...
