← ScienceWhich outcome during biodiesel production increases when lipase concentration reduces activation energy?
A)Saponification reaction rate increases
B)Ester conversion rate decreases✓
C)Glycerol formation efficiency lowers
D)Catalyst poisoning susceptibility remains
💡 Explanation
Decreased lipase concentration raises effective activation energy, therefore the transesterification rate drops impacting ester conversion, because the reaction barriers become harder to overcome, rather than accelerating other degradation pathways.
