Synthesis of calcium oxide based catalysts for biodiesel production

Abstract

In this work, synthesis of several types of calcium oxide based catalysts by mechanochemical treatment and subsequent calcination is presented. Prepared nanocomposite CaO·ZnO, calcium containing perovskites CaTiO3, CaMnO3, CaZrO3 and Ca2Fe2O5, a series of CaO·SiO2 mixed oxides and calcium diglyceroxide (CaDG) were characterized and tested in the methanolysis of sunflower oil under different working conditions: catalyst amount, agitation speed, temperature and methanol to oil molar ratio
