Biodiesel production via transesterification of waste palm oil using mg/ai2o3 as heterogeneous catalyst / Nurul Hidayah Lukmanul Hakim

Two main types of biofuels are bioethanol and biodiesel. Biodiesel also known as FAME is a renewable environmental friendly fuel and has caught the public interest. The Mg/Al203 catalyst used in this study was prepared by IWI method and was calcined at I000°C. After that, the catalyst was charact...

The Mg/Al203 catalyst used in this study was prepared by IWI method and was calcined at I000°C. After that, the catalyst was characterized by using FTIR and TGA. The parameter studied were reaction time and catalyst loading. The highest percentages yield of biodiesel is 42.5% from one step transesterification reaction. The condition was 12:1 methanol to oil ratio, reaction temperature of 65°C, reaction time of 2 hours and 4 wt% catalyst loading. The esterification reaction was accomplished in the existing of H2S04 as a common acid catalyst to reduce the amount of free fatty acid (FFA).

The catalyst has low reusability because the used catalyst surface has been contaminated after the reaction. Thus, the catalyst is not suitable to be used for various cycles.
