Recent Development of Heterogeneous Catalysis in the Transesterification of Glycerol to Glycerol Carbonate

open access: yesCatalysts, 2019
Glycerol is one of the most crucial by-products in the production of biodiesel, and owing to its oversaturation in the market, several synthetic strategies have been developed to transform it into other higher value-added products such as glycerol ...

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

HCME: An Environment-Friendly I.C. Engine Fuel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The study revealed that Hura crepitans oil is a good candidate for Hura crepitans methyl ester (HCME) production. Two steps (esterification and transesterification) production stages influenced the high yield of HCME.

Engineered nanoporous materials mediated heterogeneous catalysts and their implications in biodiesel production

open access: yesMaterials Science for Energy Technologies, 2018
World’s energy needs are majorly dependent on the fossil fuels, including petrochemical sources and coal. The alternate of these fuels include hydro and nuclear powers. However, all these resources are finite and current rate of consumption indicates the

Soybean Oil Transesterification for Biodiesel Production with Micro-Structured Calcium Oxide (CaO) from Natural Waste Materials as a Heterogeneous Catalyst

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
In this study, micro-structured calcium oxide obtained from the calcination (850 °C for 3 h) of Gallus gallus domesticus (chicken) eggshells was used as a catalyst in the transesterification of soybean oil.

Glycerol carbonate formation from glycerol and dimethyl carbonate using lithium‐based catalysts

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Excess glycerol from biodiesel production can be sustainably converted into value‐added products like glycerol carbonate, for its use in polymers, solvents, and as ecofriendly alternative as green chemical in various chemical industries. This study aims to synthesize a catalyst optimized for the glycerol and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) conversion

Melt block copolymerization of ε-caprolactone and L-lactide [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
AB block copolymers of ε-caprolactone and (L)-lactide could be prepared by ring-opening polymerization in the melt at 110°C using stannous octoate as a catalyst and ethanol as an initiator provided ε-caprolactone was polymerized first.

Synthesis, characterization, and performance of x_MoO3/Z‐22 and x_MoO3/MMP catalysts for biodiesel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Methyl transesterification of soybean oil using heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production. Abstract The growing global demand for renewable fuels has driven the search for efficient catalysts in biodiesel production. This study presents the synthesis and characterization of x_MoO3/Z‐22 and x_MoO3/MMP heterogeneous catalysts, and evaluates the ...
