Biodiesel production via two steps catalyzed process : the study on effect of temperature and catalyst weight percent to the biodiesel yield, FFA content and acid value.

In this study, the effects of temperature and catalyst weight percent to the biodiesel yield, FFA content and acid value were studied. The biodiesel is produced by two-steps catalyzed process. The essential part of the process is the transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) with methanol in pr...
