Biodiesel production via transesterification of palm olein using waste mud crab ( Scylla serrata) shell as a heterogeneous catalyst

A recent rise in crab aquaculture activities has intensified the generation of waste shells. In the present study, the waste shells were utilized as a source of calcium oxide to transesterify palm olein into methyl esters (biodiesel). Characterization results revealed that the main component of the...
