Preparation of KOH/CaO/C Supported Biodiesel Catalyst and Application Process

An Alternative Eco-Friendly Avenue for Castor Oil Biodiesel: Use of Solid Supported Acidic Salt Catalyst

A packed bed membrane reactor for production of biodiesel using activated carbon supported catalyst.

In this study, a novel continuous reactor has been developed to produce high quality methyl esters (biodiesel) from palm oil. A microporous TiO2/Al2O3 membrane was packed with potassium hydroxide catalyst supported on palm shell activated carbon. The central composite design (CCD) of response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to investigate the effects of reaction temperature, catalyst amo...

Optimization of Biodiesel Production Process from Restaurant Waste Frying Oils in the Presence of Homogeneous Catalyst

Background and Objective: Because of the importance of the role of energy in the world and nonrenewability of fossil fuels and caused environmental issues by these fuels in recent years, many studies have been conducted to find an appropriate alternative to fossil fuels in different countries of the world. Biofuels such as (biodiesel and bioethanol) have been introduced as one of the most desir...

Simulation, Case Studies and Optimization of a Biodiesel Process with a Solid Acid Catalyst

A commercial process simulator was used to develop a detailed simulation of a biodiesel production process, and carry out case studies and optimization. The simulated process produced biodiesel from a feedstock containing 5 wt.% free fatty acids in a fixed-bed reactor with sulfated-zirconia as an acidic catalyst. Sized unit operation blocks, material and energy flows were used to conduct an eco...
