Transesterification/Esterification Of Non-Edible And Waste Cooking Oils To Fame And Glycerol Free Fame Using Carbon And Silica-Based Catalysts

Biodiesel, also known as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), is an alternative fuel for diesel engines that is gathering attention worldwide. However, the burden of excess low-value glycerol by-product that is produced in traditional transesterification may thwart the growth of the biodiesel industr...
