A kinetics study of in situ transesterification of solid coconut waste was conducted at temperature (55-65°C). The mixing is kept constant at 350 rpm. The maximum conversion of 38.3% was obtained at 60°C, 1:10 solid to methanol ratio and 5 wt. % of catalyst. The conversion of solid coconut waste to...
