Abstract

Catalystsperforming momentous aspects in transesterification of both edible and non-edible vegetable oils. At present here chemical catalysts are being investigated with their benefits and loss of points. In an extensive operation, catalysts are more helpful to reduce the cost in this heterogeneous nature of a catalyst is more useful and economical compared to homogeneous catalysts. This article reviews the role of the various heterogeneous chemical catalytic systems used in the transesterification of oils in biofuel manufacturing.
