Non-edible Jatropha oil to produce biodiesel in supercritical methanol.
Maximum FAME yield of 99.5 wt% is obtained at 325 °C, 90 min and 42:1 methanol/oil.
Thermal decomposition is evidenced at the temperature of 350 °C.
The maximum thermal cracking degree (24.16%) is obtained at 350 °C and 90 min.
The individual FAMEs thermally degraded are oleic and linoleic.
