Transesterification of non-edible Jatropha curcas oil to biodiesel using binary Ca-Mg mixed oxide catalyst: effect of stoichiometric composition

Heterogeneous base catalysts were studied to develop an effective biodiesel manufacturing process with high activity and durability. Investigations were conducted on solid base CaO–MgO mixed metal oxides with different Ca/Mg atomic ratios. These catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD...
