Enzymatic production of biodiesel from cotton seed oil using t-butanol as a solvent
TL;DR: It was found, using a batch system, that enzyme inhibition caused by undissolved methanol was eliminated by adding t-butanol to the reaction medium, which also gave a noticeable increase of reaction rate and ester yield.
