Introduction  Biodiesel Fig.1 The transesterification of triglyceride with methanol (1)

Fats and oils have quite big molecules with a spinal of glycerol on which are bond three fatty acid rests. By the transesterification, the fatty acid rests are removed from the glycerol and each is bond with methanol. The products are one mole glycerol and three mole of fatty acid methyl ester. Introduction

Conclusion  Supported CaO catalysts are active in the transesterification reaction for biodiesel production.  The basic carrier MgO, a Ca loading of 16.5 (wt)% and a calcination temperature of 700 o C  pretreatment before use is important  When the CaO/MgO catalyst was operated at the boiling temperature of methanol, 64.5 oC, with an 18:1 molar ratio of methanol/oil and 1 g catalyst, the conversion of rapeseed oil reached 92 %.  High content of water and FFA in oil could inhibit its transesterification.
