Evaluation and optimisation of direct transesterification methods for the assessment of lipid accumulation in oleaginous filamentous fungi

Microbial Cell Factories, 2021
Background Oleaginous filamentous fungi can accumulate large amount of cellular lipids and potentially serve as a major source of oleochemicals for food, feed, chemical, pharmaceutical, and transport industries.

Experimental kinetic study of transesterification of ethyl acetate with methanol catalyzed by gel and macroporous acidic ion exchange resins [PDF]

, 2012
The reaction kinetics of the liquid-phase transesterification of ethyl acetate with methanol have been investigated over a series of commercially available ion-exchange resins. Two morphology types of cross-linked polymer resins have been considered, i.e.

Comparative effects of biomass pre-treatments for direct and indirect transesterification to enhance microalgal lipid recovery

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2014
Microalgal lipid recovery for biodiesel production is currently considered suboptimal, but pre-treatment of algal biomass, the use of solvent mixtures and the positioning of transesterification can lead to increased yields.

Enzymatic transesterification of Jatropha oil [PDF]

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2009
Abstract Background Transesterification of Jatropha oil was carried out in t-butanol solvent using immobilized lipase from Enterobacter aerogenes. The presence of t-butanol significantly reduced the negative effects caused by both methanol and glycerol. The effects of various reaction parameters on transesterification
