Abstract
⺠The distillate produced by the deodorization of palm oil (DDPO) is a waste. ⺠DDPO is 83% free fatty acids (FFA). ⺠The Amazon flint kaolin was used for the esterification of DDPO with methanol. ⺠Leached metakaolin offered 92.8% of maximum esterification activity. ⺠Esterification of DDPO can be a cheaper alternative for production of biodiesel.
