Research Abstract

Free fatty acids and water in waste cooking oil prevents a transesterification of triglyceride with an alkaline catalyst. In this study, the high reaction rate and the easy separation of products was realized by using CaO particulate catalyst at the reaction temperature above the boiling point of methanol in a gas-liquid-solid trickle bed reactor. High efficient synthesis of biodiesel was achieved at two-step process with an acid and an alkaline catalyst in microtube reactors.
