Industrial use of immobilized enzymes
TL;DR: The development and attributes of several established and emerging industrial applications for immobilized enzymes, including high-fructose corn syrup production, pectin hydrolysis, debittering of fruit juices, interesterification of food fats and oils, biodiesel production, and carbon dioxide capture are reviewed herein, highlighting factors that define the advantages of enzyme immobilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilisation and application of lipases in organic media.
TL;DR: The practical applications of lipases in organic media reviewed include ester synthesis, modification of triacylglycerols and phospholipids, fatty acid enrichment, enantiomer resolution, biodiesel production and acylation of carbohydrates and bioactive compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on novel processes of biodiesel production from waste cooking oil
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of novel processes such as membrane reactor, reactive distillation column, reactive absorption, ultrasonic and microwave irradiation significantly influenced the final conversion, yield and in particular, the quality of product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current biodiesel production technologies: A comparative review
TL;DR: A comparative review of the current technological methods so far used to produce biodiesel has been investigated in this article, where four primary approaches to make biodiesel are direct use and blending of vegetable oils, micro-emulsions, thermal cracking (pyrolysis) and transesterification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycerol production and its applications as a raw material: A review
TL;DR: This paper reviews different methods of producing crude glycerol as the major by-product of biodiesel production by transesterification, soap manufacturing by saponification as well as hydrolysis reaction.

Biodiesel production : a review
Fangrui Ma,Milford A. Hanna +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the transesterification reaction is aected by molar ratio of glycerides to alcohol, catalysts, reaction temperature, reaction time and free fatty acids and water content of oils or fats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic alcoholysis for biodiesel fuel production and application of the reaction to oil processing
TL;DR: In this paper, a stepwise methanolysis system with immobilized Candida antarctica lipase was developed for the production of biodiesel fuel from waste oil, where the first-step reaction was conducted in the presence of 1/3 molar equivalent of MeOH for the stoichiometric amount.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilized Pseudomonas cepacia lipase for biodiesel fuel production from soybean oil.
TL;DR: The immobilized lipase PS proved to be stable and lost little activity when was subjected to repeated uses and was consistently more active than the free enzyme in transesterification of soybean oil with methanol and ethanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilised enzymes: science or art?
TL;DR: Combinatorial approaches are increasingly applied in the design of robust immobilised enzymes by rational combination of fundamental immobilisation techniques or with other relevant technologies to solve specific problems that cannot be solved by one of these basic immobilised techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors attempted continuous methanolysis of vegetable oil by an enzymatic process, which was conducted by adding methanol stepwise to avoid lipase inactivation.
