A review of the current state of biodiesel production using enzymatic transesterification (2009, background): “Also Noureddini et al. (2005) found at 8.2:1 mole alcohol to oil that a P. cepacia lipase gave highest ester yield out of nine lipases tested for methanolysis of soybean oil.”
An overview of enzymatic production of biodiesel. (2008, methodology): “Noureddini et al. (2001) used methanol and ethanol for the tranesterification of soyabean oil in the presence of immobilized enzyme obtained from Pseudomonas flourescens and reported conversions 67% and 65% for methanol and ethanol respectively.”
Molecular cloning and characterization of thermostable esterase and lipase from Geobacillus thermoleovorans YN isolated from desert soil in Egypt (2007, background): “These reactions led to many industrial applications: desymmetrization of prostereogenic compounds and resolution of racemic mixtures for the preparation of chiral building blocks for the synthesis of fine chemicals for the pharmaceutical industry [7,8], synthesis of flavour esters for the food indus”
Biodiesel production—current state of the art and challenges (2008, background): “New biochemical routes to biodiesel production, based on the use of enzymes, have become very interesting [6, 9, 18, 27, 33, 37, 39].”
