Preparation of biodiesel from waste cooking oil and refines bleached deodorized oil using single step batch transesterification process with the aid of KOH as the catalyst

Biodiesel is a cleaner burning diesel replacement fuel processed from natural, renewable derived from biological sources such as waste cooking oil and refined bleached deodorized palm oil. The type of process that needs to be done to produce biodiesel is called transesterification. The transesterifi...
