Synthesis and application of hierarchical mesoporous HZSM-for biodiesel production from shea butter
Here, we report the upgrading of shea butter to biodiesel with hierarchical mesoporous ZSM-zeolites (HMZeol). Shea butter is a triglyceride (mainly oleic and steric acid) extracted from African shea tree nut. The catalysts synthesis was by desilication of conventional ZSM-with an aqueous solution of...
