ZrO2-SUPPORTED ALKALI METAL (Li, Na, K) CATALYSTS FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION

We studied the effect of the alkali metal type (Li, Na, and K) and the calcination temperature (500, 600 and 700 °C) in the activity for biodiesel production of catalysts prepared by impregnation method, with constant metal content of 10%w/w using ZrO2 as support. The results of the catalytic activi...
