Micro porous polymeric matrix was synthesized from styrene divinylbenzene (STY-DVB) copolymers by using high internal phase emulsion technique and two different lipases, Lipozyme TL-100L (R) and Novozym 388 (R), were used for immobilization by both physical adsorption and covalent attachment. Biodiesel production was carried out with semi-continuous operation. Methanol was added into the reactor by three successive additions of 1:4 M equivalent of methanol to avoid enzyme inhibition. The transesterification reaction conditions were as follows: oil/alcohol molar ratio 1:4; temperature 40 degrees C and total reaction time 6 h. Lipozyme TL-100L (R) lipase provided the highest yield of fatty acid methyl esters as 92%. Operational stability was determined with immobilized lipase and it indicated that a small enzyme deactivation occurred after used repeatedly for 10 consecutive batches with each of 24 h. Since the process is yet effective and enzyme does not leak out from the polymer, the method can be proposed for industrial applications.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAgricultureBiotechnology & applied microbiologyEnergy & fuelsBrassica napusFameStyrene-divinylbenzeneEnzyme activityBiocatalysisLipaseBiodiesel fuel productionCatalyzed transesterificationImprovementSunflowerAspergillus oryzaeBrassica napusBrassica napus var. napusAdsorptionAldehydesBiodieselEmulsificationEnzyme activityEnzymesEsterificationEstersFatty acidsFunctional groupsFunctional polymersHydrolasesIndustrial applicationsLipasesMethanolPolymersStyreneSynthetic fuelsAspergillus OryzaeBiocatalysisBiodiesel productionBrassica napusCanola oilCovalent attachmentEnzyme deactivationFAMEFatty acid methyl esterHigh internal phase emulsionsImmobilized lipaseLipase enzymeLipase immobilizationLipozymeLong chain fatty acidMethyl estersMicroporousMolar ratioNovozymesOperational stabilityPhysical adsorptionPolymeric matricesReaction timeSemicontinuous operationStyrene-divinylbenzeneTransesterification reactionBiofuelCatalysisDicotyledonEnzyme activityEsterFatty acidFungusImmobilizationVegetable oilEnzyme inhibitionArticle0002896114000122-s2.0-7995253359614961501354 (Special Issue)Agricultural engineeringBiotechnology & applied microbiologyEnergy &fuelsTransesterification; Triacylglycerol Lipase; Pseudozyma Antarctica
