Efficiency study of Chamberlainia hainesiana shell as catalyst filler for biodiesel production
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the performance of Chamberlainia hainesiana shell as catalyst filler for biodiesel production. Chamberlainia hainesiana shell catalyst prepared with a calcination temperature at 900๐C for 4 hr. Furthermore, calcium oxide was confirmed through characteristic of XRD patterns at 32.21๐, 37.24๐, 53.77๐, 64.13๐, 67.57๐ with a high porosity. The molar ratio of methanol to oil was 9:1 for transesterification at temperature was 60 °C for 30 minutes the biodiesel production more than 78.32%. These findings have opened novel catalyst filler for highly biodiesel production with economical and environment friendly meterials.
