Effect of Calcination Temperature on Catalyst Surface Area of Ca Supported TiO2 by Sol-Gel Method for Biodiesel Production

Article Preview

Abstract:

Currently, the major concern in production of biodiesel is to find a new catalyst which can produce high quality of biodiesel at lower costs. In this study, titania supported CaO catalyst was prepared by a so-gel method. The characterization of catalyst was done using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) model method to characterize the surface area of the catalyst. Further, the ability of the catalyst for transterification reaction of waste cooking oil (WCO) with methanol was also assessed. The effect of calcination temperature on the catalyst to the transesterification reaction was examined to investigate the relation between catalyst calcination temperature and percentage yield (% yield) of biodiesel production.
