“…The chemical catalysis is faster than the enzymatic process. Among the different kinds of chemical catalysis, alkaline catalysis has been widely employed in DMC-mediated biofuels and chemicals production [34,41,66,69,78]. The cost of alkaline catalysts, such as metal hydroxides, alkoxides and metal oxides, is comparatively cheaper than enzyme, and high yields have been obtained with chemical catalysis [59].…”

Due to the increasing emission of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), the development of fuels and chemicals based on renewable resources has attracted much attention. Bio-oil, as a carbon rich material, has been considered as a feedstock for biodiesel production. In conventional methanol-mediated transesterification of bio-oil for biodiesel production, significant amounts of glycerol are being generated as a byproduct. In order to overcome these issues, dimethyl carbonate (DMC) has been recently used as an alternative acyl acceptor to avoid the generation of glycerol. DMC is an environmentally-benign chemical reagent and reactive solvent due to safety, health, and environmental benefits. Moreover, DMC can be produced from CO 2 . Co-production of biodiesel and chemicals such as glycerol carbonate is possible as the concept of zero-waste utilization of bio-oil. Value-added chemicals can be synthesized using DMC as a reagent. This paper provides a review on the physical and chemical properties of DMC as a solvent, as well as the production methods for DMC. DMC-mediated production of various chemicals and fuels in both chemical and enzymatic processes are discussed together with their pros and cons.

“…The yield of FAME increased from 99.31% to 100% with the increase in DMC from 4 to 9. According to a previous study by Panchal et al [16], 96% of ester was produced from the reaction with DMC ratio to oil of 3, as well as a 6-8 h reaction time. Further increase in DMC molar ratio to 12 and 15 slightly decreased the FAME yield to 94.09% and 91.68%, respectively.…”
