In biodiesel production, catalyst plays as an important role as it can increase the rate of the reaction. The type of catalyst that usually can be found are homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst. However, homogenous catalyst is difficult to separate with the product (biodiesel) at the end of the reaction compared to heterogeneous catalyst. This will result in production of high waste water and creates issue in regeneration of the catalyst. In order to overcome the issue, many researchers have studied about heterogeneous catalyst and the use this type of catalyst in production of biodiesel. The heterogeneous catalyst can be developed from natural resources such as animal bone, waste and natural rock which is a type of alkali earth oxides. A way to improve the catalytic acti...

In biodiesel production, catalyst plays as an important role as it can increase the reaction rate of the reaction. The types of catalyst that usually can be found are homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst. However, homogenous catalyst is difficult to separate with the product (biodiesel) at the end of the reaction compared to heterogeneous catalyst which leads to production of high volume of waste water and having an issue in regeneration of the catalyst. In order to overcome these issues, many researchers study about heterogeneous catalyst for production of biodiesel. The heterogeneous catalyst can be developed from natural resources such as animal bone, waste and natural rock. In addition, the reaction rate of the catalyst also can be enhanced by using nanocatalyst due to high catalytic efficiency, large surface area, high resistance to saponification and good rigidity. Therefore, the rate of the reaction in b...
