SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIFUNCTIONAL HETEROGENEOUS CATALYSTS FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION FROM WASTE COOKING OIL
Biodiesel has attracted a great deal of attention worldwide because of its biodegradable, nontoxic, clean and renewable characteristics. Biodiesel is currently produced by the homogeneous acid-base technology using different feedstocks. However, the heterogeneous catalysts have recently gained tr...

| Summary: | Biodiesel has attracted a great deal of attention worldwide because of its
biodegradable, nontoxic, clean and renewable characteristics. Biodiesel is currently
produced by the homogeneous acid-base technology using different feedstocks.
However, the heterogeneous catalysts have recently gained tremendous importance in
view of the current economic climate e.g. increased competition, stringent pollution
regulations etc. |
