Ultrasound-assisted solid Lewis acid-catalyzed transesterification of Lesquerella fendleri oil for biodiesel synthesis

Ultrasound-assisted solid Lewis acid-catalyzed transesterification of Lesquerella fendleri oil for biodiesel synthesis

Biodiesel, a mixture of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), is bio-renewable, non-toxic, biodegradable, and is an attractive alternative to petroleum diesel. This work studied the sonochemical transesterification of Lesquerella fendleri oil (LFO) using inexpensive solid Lewis acid (LA) catalysts with a...
