Effect of reaction conditions in the catalytic esterification of palm fatty acid distillate to produce fatty acid methyl ester

Effect of reaction conditions in the catalytic esterification of palm fatty acid distillate to produce fatty acid methyl ester

Biodiesel or fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) obtained via esterification process is an alternative for industrial and transportation fuel. In this study, chromium-titanium mixed oxides catalyst synthesized via sol-gel method was used to catalyse the esterification of palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD)...
