Correction

We found an important error in our published paper [1]. On page 7, Section: One-step conversion of Jatropha oil to biodiesel, line 3, we wrote a reaction temperature of 120degreesC. The correct temperature should be 220degreesC. The pressure was also omitted from the same reaction description and should be 7.1 MPa.
