Catalytic Characterization of Synthetic K<sup>+</sup> and Na<sup>+</sup> Sodalite Phases by Low Temperature Alkali Fusion of Kaolinite during the Transesterification of Spent Cooking Oil: Kinetic and Thermodynamic Properties
The mineral raw Egyptian kaolinite was used as a precursor in the synthesis of two sodalite phases (sodium sodalite (Na.SD) and potassium sodalite (K.SD)) according to the low alkali fusion technique. The synthesized Na.SD phase demonstrates enhanced total basicity (6.3 mmol OH/g), surface area (232...
