Silk-Cocoon Matrix Immobilized Lipase Catalyzed Transesterification of Sunflower Oil for Production of Biodiesel
Figure 3
Gas chromatogram of fatty acid methyl esters formed in the transesterification reaction catalyzed by (a) chemical catalyst (alkali) and (b) silk-cocoon immobilized lipase. Methyl esters of a: palmitic acid (C 16:0), b: oleic acid (C 18:1), and c: linoleic acid (C 18:2).
