Preparation and application of binary acid-base CaO-La2O3 catalyst for biodiesel production

A simple method was developed for biodiesel production from non-edible Jatropha oil which contains high free fatty acid using a bifunctional acid-base catalyst. The acid-base catalyst comprising CaO and La2O3 mixed metal oxides with various Ca/La atomic ratios were synthesized via co-precipitation m...
