The application of ultrasound in biodiesel production is gaining considerable attention lately. Improvements in mixing efficiency due to a streaming effect have the... 

The principles of sonochemistry can also be applied to disrupt different species of oil-bearing microalgae cells. Detailed experimental results are necessary to support the cost-effectiveness and industrial scale applicability of ultrasound for microbial lipid extraction, and subsequent biodiesel production in comparison to conventional methods (Mata et al., 2010).

Moreover, laboratory experiments have demonstrated that the use of ultrasound enhances the production of WFO biodiesel when using heterogeneous catalysts such as calcium diglyceroxide (Gupta et al., 2015) or sulfonated carbon (Maneechakr et al., 2015), among others.
