Enzymatic synthesis of fatty acid ethyl esters in supercritical and near-critical carbon dioxide using lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) immobilized onto chitosan is here investigated. The objective was to evaluate the operational parameters that influence the enzymatic esterification reaction...
