A new co-solvent method for the green production of biodiesel fuel - Optimization and practical application

- The transesterification reaction can be performed at room temperature (25 ± 1 °C).
- Reduced time for separation of glycerin (within 30 min after reaction completion).
- Reduced reaction time (less than 30 min).
- Reduction of a significant methanol amount (molar ratio of methanol to oil, 4.5:1).
- High FAME yield.
