Production of biodiesel from crude palm oil (CPO) and crude coconut oil (CCO) through transesterification method / Siti Nor Hapizah Abdullah
Biodiesel is non-toxic: biodegradable diesel fuel made from vegetable oils, animal fats, and used or recycled oils and fats. Crude oil is an example of raw material that meets the requirement to make biodiesel. In this research, biodiesel is produced by transesterification process. Methanol is used...
