    Abstract: A continuous manufacturing process is described. Vegetable oil is reacted with methanol and a catalyst such as KOH to produce biodiesel and glycerol. The reactants are passed through a reaction zone with magnetostrictive components (4) in it while subjecting them to a strong alternating rotatory magnetic field, preferably adjusted to produce a resonant acoustic or ultrasonic field in the reaction zone.
