DEACIDIFICATION AND ESTERIFACTION OF WASTE COOKING OIL: COMPARISON OF THE COUPLED PROCESS WITH STAND-ALONE CATALYTIC ESTERIFICATION AND EXTRACTION PROCESSES

The free fatty acids in waste oil with high acid value were removed and transformed into fatty acid methyl esters by the extraction-reaction coupled process. The de-acidification efficiency and esterification conversion in the extraction-reaction coupled process were studied and compared with those...
