Enzymatic synthesis of esters in supercritical fluids
Lipases are enzymes that are widely used to catalyze a variety of industrially important reactions. However, lipase?catalyzed reactions are heterogeneous and mass?transfer limited. Therefore, in most cases the reaction ... -
Non-catalytic Synthesis of Biolubricant Esters and their Solubilities in Supercritical Fluids
Breakdown products released due to increased loss of mineral oil based lubricants to the environment lead to aquatic toxicity and release of harmful volatile compounds into the atmosphere. The production of these conventional ...
