Transesterification of Triglycerides in a New Ultrasonic- Assisted Mixing Device

We adapted a media mill to house an ultrasonic horn to transesterify triglycerides to biodiesel. This configuration combines enhanced mass transfer from the acoustic cavitation of the ultrasonic probe with non- conventional mixing from the media mill. It ensures oil and methanol circulates in the vi...
