Abstract: Biodiesel from crude palm oil is conventionally produced via a two-step method: oil extraction and subsequent esterification/transesterification of oil to fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). In this study, a single-step in situ extraction and transesterification (collectively known as reactive extraction) of palm oil to biodiesel was investigated. The main objective of This single-step reactive extraction process is shown to be an alternative route for biodiesel production that not only reduces processing steps and capital investment but also increases the overall biodiesel yield. |
