Reactive Extraction of Jatropha curcas L. Seed for Production of Biodiesel: Process Optimization Study

Biodiesel from Jatropha curcas L. seed is conventionally produced via a two-step method: extraction of oil and subsequent esterification/transesterification to fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), commonly known as biodiesel. Contrarily, in this study, a single step in situ extraction, esterification a...
