Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize esterification of oleic acid with methanol over 20% (w/w) H3PW12O40/K-10. The effects of various process parameters such as catalyst loading, molar ratio, and reaction temperature on oleic acid conversion were addressed by BoxBehnken experimental design (BBD). Coefficient of determination (R-2) of this model was 0.996. 20% (w/w) H3PW12O40/K-10 was proved to be potential catalyst with 100% oleic acid conversion at optimized process parameters and with reusability of four cycles. Moreover, a second-order pseudohomogeneous (PH) kinetic model has been proposed and validated (R-2 &amp;gt; 0.97) with experimental data. Kinetics confirmed that esterification reaction is performed in the kinetic regime due to high activation energy of 43.7 kJ mol(-1).&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">49</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.01</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
