Catalysts for Transesterification of Vegetable Oils: A Review

Catalysts for Transesterification of Vegetable Oils: A Review

The transesterification of vegetable oils is a critical process in the production of biodiesel, a renewable and biodegradable alternative to fossil fuels. This process involves the substitution of alcohols for ester groups in triglycerides, facilitated by catalysts that significantly influence reac...
