Characterization of rare earths obtained from monazite concentrate processing and their application in esterification for biodiesel production

Rare earths namely lanthanum (La), neodymium (Nd) and cerium (Ce) obtained from the monazite concentrate processing were comprehensively characterized using XRF, XRD, FTIR, N2adsorption–desorption, CO2/NH3-TPD and SEM to reveal their catalytic performance in esterification of oleic acid for biodiese...
