An experimental investigation on the effect of surfactant for the transesterification of soybean oil over eggshell-derived CaO catalysts

Biodiesel is a biodegradable and renewable fuel, that generally consists of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) produced by transesterification of lipids using methanol and a catalyst. Calcium oxide (CaO) is a heterogeneous catalyst that has been extensively studied to produce biodiesel due to its high c...
