Biodiesel Production Using Ultrasonic-Assisted Heterogeneous Catalytic Process

Biodiesel, a product from the transesterification of alcohol and vegetable oils or animal fats, is a greener alternative to petroleum diesel. Biodiesel production process assisted by means of ultrasonic energy has been investigated. Alkaline metal earth oxide catalysts i.e. MgO, CaO, BaO and SrO wer...
