“…272 Microwaves have been coupled with continuous flow reactors for the transesterification of waste cooking oil, accelerating biodiesel production compared to conventional thermal heating, and hence higher throughput. 269 The majority of microwave studies to date have focused on homogeneously catalysed processes, although some innovative combinations of waste derived (eggshell) solid catalysts and microwaves are emerging. 273 Such microwave systems also require less solvent and catalyst.…”

Concern over the economics of accessing fossil fuel reserves, and widespread acceptance of the anthropogenic origin of rising CO2 emissions and associated climate change from combusting such carbon sources, is driving academic and commercial research into new routes to sustainable fuels to meet the demands of a rapidly rising global population. Here we discuss catalytic esterification and transesterification solutions to the clean synthesis of biodiesel, the most readily implemented and low cost, alternative source of transportation fuels to meet future societal demands.

“…The parameter values, corresponding to Eq. (12), are reported in Table 2 [4,[22][23][24]. It is advisable to model the heat transfer between the jacket and the reactor for an optimal control approach, especially when waste heat or district heating is used, because the delays of the inputs and small temperature differences, which result in small heat flows, are taken into account.…”

“…Some researchers studied the effect of the use of the reactor type to biodiesel yield as well as the process efficiency in biodiesel production [21,[24][25][26]. Olivares-Carrillo and Quesada-Medina [27] studied transesterification process of refined soybean oil in a batch reactor using supercritical methanol.…”

Preliminary testing of hybrid catalytic-plasma reactor for biodiesel production through transesterification of soybean oil with methanol over modified-carbon catalyst was investigated. This research focused on synergetic roles of non-thermal plasma and catalysis in the transesterification process. The amount of modified-carbon catalyst with grain size of 1.75 mm was placed into fixed tubular reactor within discharge zone. The discharge zone of the hybrid catalytic-plasma reactor was defined in the volume area between high voltage and ground electrodes. Weight Hourly Space Velocity (WHSV) of 1.85 h -1 of reactant feed was studied at reaction temperature of 65 o C and at ambient pressure. The modified-carbon catalyst was prepared by impregnation of active carbon within H2SO4 solution followed by drying at 100 o C for overnight and calcining at 300 o C for 3 h. It was found that biodiesel yield obtained using the hybrid catalytic-plasma reactor was 92.39% and 73.91% when using active carbon and modified-carbon catalysts, respectively better than without plasma. Therefore, there were synergetic effects of non-thermal plasma and catalysis roles for driving the transesterification process. Copyright
