Effect of operative variables and kinetic study of butyl butyrate synthesis by candida rugosa lipase activated by chitosan-reinforced nanocellulose derived from raw oil palm leaves

Currently, the chemically-assisted esterification to manufacture butyl butyrate employs corrosive homogeneous acid catalyst and liberates enormous quantities of hazardous by-products which complicate downstream treatment processes. This study aimed to identify the optimized esterification conditions...
