Figure 5. Application for the synthesis of biodiesel by continuous-flow
esterification: flow time and yield. (a) Batch conditions: 90 °C, 15 h.
reaction temperature. The catalyst promoted the direct
esterification of carboxylic acids and alcohols under both
continuous-flow and batch conditions, producing the corre-
sponding esters in high yield. One PAFR II-packed flow reactor
converted substrates for several months without loss in catalytic
activity. Research is ongoing to explore more potential
esterification applications.
