Abstract:This study investigated the use of immobilized lipase in SBA‐15 and pore‐expanded SBA‐15 surface modified with tin, denoted as SnS23B (mean pore size of 21.6 nm) and SnS8B (with mean pore size of 9.6 nm), respectively, to produce ethyl esters. The effects of various reaction parameters, including biocatalyst type, oil (refined and degummed soybean oil), water addition, oil‐to‐ethanol molar ratio, immobilized lipase concentration, agitation speed, reaction temperature, and glycerol addition, were examined.
