Abstract
⺠Rapeseed oil is converted to biodiesel by various supercritical carboxylate esters. ⺠Instead of glycerol, various triacins are formed as the by-product. ⺠The highest biodiesel yield is from supercritical methyl acetate treatment. ⺠Longer alkyl and/or acyl moieties of carboxylate esters result in lower yield. ⺠Mixtures of FAAE and triacin give no negative effects on fuel properties.
