- Mo-Zr/CS catalyst was synthesized using simple wet impregnation method. transesterified WCPO high FAME yield of 90% in 3Â h.
- Mo-Zr/CS catalysts were characterized using XRD, BET, CO2-TPD, SEM and EDX.
- Effects of basicity of the catalyst have been correlated with the FAME yield production.
- Effects of methanol/oil molar ratio, catalyst amount, reaction temperature and reaction time were optimized.
- 10Mo-Zr/CS catalyst can easily be recovered and maintain more than 70% FAME yield after three times of successive reuse.
In this study, waste shells derived calcium-based catalysts were synthesized via wet-impregnation process in the presence of Mo-Zr mixed salt. The synthesized catalysts were characterized using CO2-TPD, XRD, BET surface measurement, SEM and EDX spectrometry, respectively. This heterogeneous catalyst was used to synthesize biodiesel via transesterification of waste cooking palm oil (WCPO) to fatty acid methyl ester in the presence of methanol. The catalyst demonstrated a superior catalytic performance in transesterification reaction, yielded 90.1% in 3Â h. Reusability of this waste shell derived catalyst was examined and results showed that the prepared catalysts are able to be reused up to 3 times with yield of more than 70% after the third cycles. Therefore, this new modified calcium-based catalyst exhibited outstanding activity and durability in the synthesis of biodiesel. The as-synthesized catalyst is recyclable and reusable, which successfully reduces the biodiesel production cost.
