Design, construction and performance evaluation of a mini-scale batch reactor for biodiesel production: A case study of shea butter
This study developed a mini-scale batch reactor after evaluating the kinetics of biodiesel production. The reactor was evaluated for its performance by two-stage and one-pot syntheses methods using shea butter. The biodiesel produced was characterized and compared with the ASTM standards for biodi...
