Production of Waste Animal Bone as a Heterogeneous Solid Base Catalyst for Transesterification of Jatropha OilBy Belete Tessema Asfaw, Kaleab Bizuneh Gebeyehu
Abstract: Heterogeneous catalyst plays a vital role in transesterification process, especially in view of cost and reusability. In this study, heterogeneous solid base catalyst was prepared by impregnating the waste animal bone with different weight percent (wt%) KOH solution followed by drying and calcination at 900 °C for 3 hr. Having screened the catalytic performance and basicity of animal bone loaded with different K-compounds, 12 wt% KOH loaded on animal bone …
