Esterification of free fatty acids in simulated waste cooking oil using sulphuric acids as catalyst: pre-treatment of feedstock for biodiesel production

Oil has been a major contribution in the world energy supply nowadays. As fossil fuel become exhausted every day, alternative fuel like biodiesel which sustainable and renewable has become potential substitute. Majority biodiesel are made from vegetable oil but create imbalance to food supply chain....
