This study focuses on the development of a novel two-stage (esterification–transesterification) synthesis of biodiesel from used cooking oil (UCO) using ion exchange resins as catalysts. Esterification of the UCO has been conducted using various types of ion exchange resin catalysts. Purolite D5081,...
