Optimization work revealed that at MeOH:oil mass ratio of 6:1 and 2.3 wt.% catalyst (based on DC weight) with 1:2 co-solvents:DC mass ratio as the optimal reaction conditions. Both decanter cake and boiler ash, waste materials from oil palm mill, were successfully utilized to produce methyl ester (biodiesel) with highest conversion of 85.9 wt.% in a 1 h reaction period at 55 C. 2014-05-02T07:45:52Z 2014-05-02T07:45:52Z 2013 Article Energy Conversion and Management, vol. 76, 2013, pages 527-532 0196-8904 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0196890413004482 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34214 en Elsevier Ltd.
