“…However, Co(II)@chitosan showed a higher biodiesel yield (94.01%), as compared to Cu(II)@chitosan (88.82%) using the optimal reaction conditions. In another work, Jitputti et al 87 Meanwhile, Baskar et al 91 used the Mn-doped ZnO nanomaterial for the conversion of Mahua oil to biodiesel, and observed that the catalyst calcined at 600 C showed the highest biodiesel yield of 97% under the optimum reaction conditions. The kinetic investigation of the reaction revealed that 181.91 kJ mol À1 activation energy is necessary for biodiesel synthesis from Mahua oil utilizing the Mn-doped ZnO catalyst.…”

“…Baskar et al developed manganese-doped zinc oxide, which was used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the production of biodiesel from Mahua oil. The 8% (w/v) catalyst concentration, 1%:7% (v/v) oil-to-methanol ratio, 50 min of reaction time, and 323.15 K reaction temperature were found to be the optimum process conditions for a maximum biodiesel yield of 97% [78]. The same research group also investigated heterogeneous Ni-doped ZnO nanocatalyst for biodiesel production from castor oil with high FFA.…”

The development of solid acid catalysts, especially based on metal oxides and different magnetic nanoparticles, gained much awareness recently as a result of the development of different nano-based materials. Solid acid catalysts based on metal oxides are promising for the (trans)esterification reactions of different oils and waste materials for biodiesel production. This review gives a brief overview of recent developments in various solid acid catalysts based on different metal oxides, such as zirconia, zinc, titanium, iron, tungsten, and magnetic materials, where the catalysts are optimized for various reaction parameters, such as the amount of catalyst, molar ratio of oil to alcohol, reaction time, and temperature. Furthermore, yields and conversions for biodiesel production are compared. Such metal-oxide-based solid acid catalysts provide more sustainable, green, and easy-separation synthesis routes with high catalytic activity and reusability than traditionally used catalysts.

<p>An ever-increasing energy demand and environmental problems associated with exhaustible fossil fuels have led to the search for an alternative renewable source of energy. In this context, biodiesel has attracted attention worldwide as an alternative to fossil fuel for being renewable, non-toxic, biodegradable, carbon-neutral; hence eco-friendly. Despite homogeneous catalyst has its own merits, currently, much attention has been paid to chemically synthesize heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production as it can be tuned as per specific requirement, easily recovered, thus enhance reusability. Recently, biomass-derived heterogeneous catalysts have risen to the forefront of biodiesel productions because of their sustainable, economical and eco-friendly nature. Further, nano and bifunctional catalysts have emerged as a powerful catalyst largely due to their high surface area and potential to convert free fatty acids and triglycerides to biodiesel, respectively. This review highlighted the latest synthesis routes of various types of catalysts including acidic, basic, bifunctional and nanocatalysts derived from different chemicals as well as biomass. In addition, the impacts of different methods of preparation of catalysts on the yield of biodiesel are also discussed in details.</p>
