A cleaner approach towards magnetically assisted-electrolysis of biodiesel production using novel MnFe2O4@sawdust derived biochar nanocatalyst and its performance on a CI engine

The present research focused on the synthesis of nanocatalyst using manganese ferrite impregnated on sawdustderived biochar (MnFe2O4@biochar) through single-stage hydrothermal process and was subsequently employed as a recoverable and highly reactive catalyst in the conversion of edible waste oil (EWO) into biodiesel. Diverse characterization techniques were employed to assess the structural attributes of both MnFe2O4 […]

Utilization of zinc doped biochar catalyst for biodiesel production from waste cooking oil: process optimization and characterization

Biodiesel, an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to diesel, has gained increasing interest over the past few years. The reuse of waste cooking oil as a feedstock for biodiesel production is affordable and environmentally safe. This study aimed to understand the understudied benefits of using zinc-doped biochar as a catalyst for biodiesel production. The zinc-doped biochar […]

Sustainable biodiesel production from waste cooking oil using banana peel biochar-Fe2O3/Fe2K6O5 magnetic catalyst

Addressing environmental challenges and energy resource scarcity, this study focuses on biodiesel production through the transesterification of waste cooking oil with methanol. To facilitate the reaction, a novel heterogeneous catalyst, derived from waste banana peels and composed of biochar-Fe2O3/Fe2K6O5, was employed. The magnetic acid-base catalyst was prepared by carbonating banana peel residue with Fe(III) and […]
