Transesterification of Waste Cooking Oil using Calcium Loaded on Deoiled Spent Bleaching Clay as a Solid Base Catalyst

Waste cooking oil has a high potential as a raw material in biodiesel production due to its abundant availability and cheapest among other feedstock. Hence transesterification reaction is carried out using waste cooking oil in this research. The objective of this study is to synthesize and character...
