CHEMICAL INTERESTERIFICATION OF COTTON OIL WITH METHYL ACETATE ASSISTED BY ULTRASOUND FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION

Abstract In this study, research was performed on the interesterification reaction of cotton oil with methyl acetate, using potassium methoxide as catalyst, in the presence of ultrasonic waves. In order to obtain a better understanding of the process variables behavior, a response surface methodolog...
