Optimization of Base Catalyzed Ethanolysis of Vegetable Oils in Microreactors Using Design of Experiments

The base-catalyzed ethanolysis of soybean oil and waste cooking oil (WCO) was investigated in two types of continuous reactors (microreactor and T-mixer) and in a batch reactor. Flow rate, ethanol/oil ratio and concentration of catalyst were varied according to the design of experiments in continuou...
