Comparison Of Novozyme 435 And Purolite D5081 As Heterogeneous Catalysts For The Pretreatment Of Used Cooking Oil For Biodiesel Production

The catalytic performance of two types of catalysts, an ion-exchange resin, Purolite D5081 and an immobilised enzyme, Novozyme 435, was compared for the esterification pretreatment of used cooking oil (UCO) for the preparation of biodiesel. The reactions were carried out using a jacketed batch react...

It was found that a conversion of 94% was achieved using Purolite D5081 compared to 90% conversion with Novozyme 435.
