It is a biodegradable renewable fuel. Its production is growing exponentially due to greater concerns about environmental protection and depletion of fossil fuel resources. Further, its production from non-edible oils and animal fat is more desirable than from edible oils due to lower cost of non-edible feedstocks and elimination of food verses fuel issues. Solid acid catalysts are ideal for conversion of such low-grade oils to biodiesel. Biodiesel from non-edible oils can be produced by two methods: (1) simultaneous esterification of fatty acids and transesterification of fatty acid glycerides and (2) hydrolysis of glycerides followed by esterification. This account reports the catalytic performance of solid, Fe-Zn double-metal cyanide (DMC) complexes and other acid catalysts in these transformations for biodiesel production. The factors influencing the catalytic performance of the solid acid catalysts in biodiesel production are discussed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;1.69&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rahul, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Satyarthi, Jitendra K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Srinivas, D.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lanthanum and zinc incorporated hydrotalcites as solid base catalysts for biodiesel and biolubricants production</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Indian Journal of Chemistry Section A-Inorganic Bio-Inorganic Physical Theoretical &amp; Analytical Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biodiesel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biolubricants</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">catalysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doped hydrotalcites</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hydrotalcites</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lanthanum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solid base catalysts</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">transesterification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetable oils</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">zinc</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NATL INST SCIENCE COMMUNICATION-NISCAIR</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DR K S KRISHNAN MARG, PUSA CAMPUS, NEW DELHI 110 012, INDIA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">50</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1017-1025</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Mg-Al hydrotalcites doped with varying amounts of lanthanum and zinc ions (10 30 mol %) have been prepared by co-precipitation method and used, after calcination at 873 K, as solid base catalysts for transesterification of soybean oil with methanol (producing biodiesel) and n-octanol (producing biolubricants).

The studies revealed that 15 wt% MoOx on gamma-Al2O3 was the most active catalyst (conversion &amp;gt;90 mol% under optimized conditions). While MoOx/Al2O3 is selective mainly for epoxidation, the other catalysts are active for epoxidation as well as for decomposition of TBHP. The active species on the catalyst surface were investigated using in situ UV-visible spectroscopy. A linear correlation was observed between epoxidation activity and surface acidity of the catalyst. A new H-1 NMR method was developed to monitor the progress of epoxidation reaction which was found to be superior to gas chromatographic method in estimating the conversion of double bonds of fatty compounds.
