Which 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.
