Herein, we report the synthesis of Bi2O3 modified CaO heterogeneous catalyst for biodiesel production from low valued gurgure (Monotheca Buxifolia) seed oil to develop profitable and sustainable approach. The catalysts were analyzed by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Temper...
