Transesterification of linoleic and oleic sunflower oils to biodiesel using CaO as a solid base catalyst

Acid and Base Catalyzed Transesterification of Animal Fats to Biodiesel

The present study has been focused on the acid and base transesterification of animal fats (dairy cow and beef) to produce biodiesel by varying process parameters such as catalyst amount, catalyst nature, reaction time and temperature. The maximum biodiesel yield after acid catalysis was 94.1 ± 2.43 and 98.4 ± 2.3 percent for dairy cow and beef t...

Transesterification Of Sunflower Oil Using Mg-Al- Co3 Hydrotalcite As A Catalyst

An efficient and facile synthesis of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) using sunflower oil and methanol has been carried out in the presence of a solid base Mg-Al-CO3 hydrotalcite heterogeneous catalyst. This protocol promotes the environment friendly conditions as the hydrotalcites are non toxic, recyclable, takes less reaction time and is easy to work up. The hydrotalcite showed high activity ...

Transesterification of Waste Cooking Oil for Biodiesel Production Using Modified Clinoptilolite Zeolite as a Heterogeneous Catalyst

Reduction of fossil fuels sources, increasing of pollution gases emission, and global warming effects increase the demand of renewable fuels. One of the main candidates of alternative fuels is biodiesel. Biodiesel limits greenhouse gas effects due to the closed CO2 cycle. Biodiesel has more biodegradability, lower combustion emissions such as CO, SOx, HC, PM and lower toxicity than petro diesel...
