NOVELTY - Biodiesel is manufactured by esterification and transesterification using non-edible oil sources containing free fatty acid. The esterification method involves reacting free fatty acids source with reduced amount of alcohol, under pressure of 50 kg/cm^2, into fatty acid alkyl ester used as biodiesel.
