Production of fatty acid alkyl esters by trans-esterification or esterification, useful for producing biodiesel fuel, comprises using catalyst prepared by immersing immobilized lipase in alcohol

摘要

Production of fatty acid alkyl esters by trans-esterifying a fatty acid glyceride or esterifying a fatty acid with an alcohol having 1-3 carbon (C) atoms comprises using a catalyst prepared by immersing an immobilized lipase in an alcohol having at least 3 C atoms.
