The synthesis of bioadditives for biofuels from glycerol esterification with acetic acid was performed over zirconia supported heteropolyacids catalysts using H(4)SiW(12)O(40) (HSiW), H(3)PW(12)O(40) (HPW) and H(3)PMo(12)O(40) (HPMo) as active compounds. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by N(2)-physisorption, XRD, Raman spectroscopy

Wavelet analysis is developed as a preprocessing tool for use in removing background information from near-infrared (near-IR) single-beam spectra before the construction of multivariate calibration models. Three data sets collected with three different near-IR spectrometers are investigated that involve the
