Optimization of chemical transesterification of palm oil using response surface methodology

The effect of catalyst concentration (0.1-0.5% methoxide powder), temperature (50-92C), and time (30-480 min) of chemical transesterification was studied to determine the optimum condition for maximizing concentration of triunsaturated and trisaturated triacylglycerols (TG) in palm oil. TG compositi...
