• Biodiesel synthesis from Jatropha curcas oil catalyzed by CaO–La2O3 mixed oxide.
• Effects of Ca-to-La ratio, catalyst concentration, methanol/oil ratio and reaction temperature were optimized.
• Biodiesel yield >85% was achieved at 65 °C temperature.
• CaO–La2O3 catalyst can be easy regenerated.
Heterogeneous solid mixed oxide (CaO–La2O3) catalysts with different molar ratios of calcium to lanthanum (Ca-to-La) were synthesized by co-precipitation method. The synthesized solid CaO–La2O3 mixed metal oxide catalysts were utilized in transesterification of Jatropha curcus oil as feedstock to produce biodiesel. Under the optimized conditions at 65 °C, 4% catalyst dose with 24:1 MeOH to Jatropha oil molar ratio, the transesterification reaction exhibited 86.51% of biodiesel yield. The prepared catalysts were characterized using various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen sorption with Brunauer–Emmer–Teller (BET) method, temperature-programmed desorption of CO2 (CO2-TPD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Influence of Ca-to-La atomic ratio in the mixed metal oxide catalyst, catalyst amount, methanol to oil molar ratio, reaction time, different oils on the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) yield were appraised. Different catalyst regeneration procedures were also performed to investigate the reusability of the CaO–La2O3 catalyst.
