Renewable boronic acid affiliated glycerol nano-adsorbents for recycling enzymatic catalyst in biodiesel fuel production

Abstract

Nano-adsorbents composed of poly(4-vinylphenyl boronic acid) shell and silica core efficiently remove residual glycerol from a lipase catalyst layer in biodiesel fuel production, resulting in excellent lipase recycling. The subsequent CO2-acidolysis endows the adsorbents with sustainable renewability.
