A Brief Overview of Heterogeneous Catalysts in Biodiesel Production: Types, Benefits, and Demerits
Biodiesel is the primary pillar of our transition from fossil fuels to greener alternatives. It is prepared from used cooking oil, restaurant grease, non-edible vegetable oils, and animal fat. The process requires catalysis to convert fats into esters. Biodiesel is scientifically called fatty-acid methyl esters (FAME). It is produced from the transesterification of fatty acids […]
