Preparation and characterisation of Citrulus colocynthis oil biodiesel: Optimisation of alkali-catalysed transesterification

A non-edible oil of Citrulus colocynthis was investigated as a prospective feedstock for biodiesel production by transesterification reaction with methanol. The content of fatty acid methyl ester in the produced oil obtained by four alkaline-catalysed transesterifications, i.e. sodium hydroxide, sod...
