Hydrophobic Segregation, Phase Transitions and the Anomalous Thermodynamics of Water/Methanol Mixtures B
Tod A. Pascal,William A. Goddard +1 more
TL;DR: The results do not support the iceberg model of immobilized waters and instead suggests a molecular mechanism of hydrophobic segregation at low methanol concentration where ordering of the methnol molecules bury the hydrophilic group away from the water phase.

Biodiesel processing and production
TL;DR: Biodiesel is an alternative diesel fuel that is produced from vegetable oils and animal fats, which consists of the monoalkyl esters formed by a catalyzed reaction of the triglycerides in the oil or fat with a simple monohydric alcohol.

Effects of water on biodiesel fuel production by supercritical methanol treatment.
Dadan Kusdiana,Shiro Saka +1 more
TL;DR: Investigating the effect of water on the yield of methyl esters in transesterification of triglycerides and methyl esterification of fatty acids as treated by catalyst-free supercritical methanol demonstrated that crude vegetable oil as well as its wastes could be readily used for biodiesel fuel production in a simple preparation.
