Up-scale study on ultrasonically assisted of biodiesel production from waste cooking oil (WCO)

Up-scale for the production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO) and Refined-Bleached-Deodorized (RBD) under ultrasonic condition was studied. The effects of sodium hydroxide as a catalyst and time on the biodiesel conversion were investigated. Experiments have been performed to determine the o...
