PHOTOCHEMICAL AND PHOTOCATALYTIC ESTERIFICATION OF WASTE COOKING OIL UNDER VISIBLE LIGHT IRRADIATION USING MECHANOCHEMICALLY SYNTHESIZED ZNO/SILICA

Production of biodiesel from waste cooking oils via alkali catalyzed transesterification reaction is hampered by the unacceptably high amount of free fatty acids present in waste cooking oils. Therefore, catalytic esterification of waste cooking oil with small alcohols is performed before the transe...
