Biodiesel Production through the Transesterification of Waste Cooking Oil over Typical Heterogeneous Base or Acid Catalysts
Miyuranga, K. A. Viraj; Arachchige, Udara Sampath P. R.; Marso, T. M. M.; Samarakoon Arachchige, Gamunu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)For the production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil with an acid value of 1.86 mg KOH/g, five heterogeneous catalysts—Ba(OH)2, CaO, MgO, ZnO, and AlCl3—were employed. To optimize the reaction parameters of each catalyst, ...
