Water-free process for eco-friendly purification of biodiesel obtained using a heterogeneous Ca-based catalyst

The technologies conventionally used for biodiesel purification imply high consumptions of both energy and water. In the present work, biodiesel was produced by transesterification using a very active calcium glyceroxide catalyst and purified using water-free processes. The study focused on soaps re...
