A Critical Review of In-situ Transesterification Process for Biodiesel Production.

A critical review of in-situ transesterification process for biodiesel production is reviewed. This article gives an overview of the in-situ transesterification, the parameters that have a significant effect on this process, optimization methodologies, as well as advantages and disadvantages of the in-situ technique. This will serve as database information for researchers to be in biodiesel production and stake holders.
