Efficient biodiesel production from beef tallow was achieved with radio frequency (RF) heating. A conversion rate of 96 ….3 ± 0.5% was obtained with a NaOH concentration of 0.6% (based on tallow), an RF heating for 5 min, and a methanol/tallow molar … methanol/tallow ratio. The alkaline concentration showed the largest positive impact on the conversion rate. Similar fast …
