Lemon seed oil: An alternative source for the production of glycerol‐free biodiesel
Abstract The aim of this study was the evaluation of two different procedures for the one‐pot transformation of oil extracted from Citrus limon seeds to a mixture of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) and glycerol derivatives for application as a potential biofuel. Lemon seed oil was obtained by Soxhl...
