Glycerolysis of Palm Oil Using Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Combined With Homogeneous Base Catalyst

In the present work, a new catalyst system composed of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-nano) along with a conventional homogeneous base catalyst (NaOH) for the glycerolysis of palm oil to produce monoglycerides (MG) was proposed. CuO-nano was synthesized in glycerol and directly used in the glycerol...
