Production of biodiesel from jatropha c. oil using koh and lipase candida r. in an airlift reactor

Biodiesel was one of the alternatives fuels to fuel the vehicle since world petroleum depleted. Production of biodiesel from jatropha oil was attractive option compared to other edible oil such canola oil because it has no competed with food consumption issue. This research objective was to produce...

Production of biodiesel from jatropha oil was attractive option compared to other edible oil such canola oil because it has no competed with food consumption issue.
