Abstract

Biodiesel is an environmentally attractive alternative to conventional petroleum diesel fuel (petrodiesel). Synthesized via the transesterification of lipid feedstocks with a monohydric alcohol, usually methanol or ethanol, biodiesel has many important technical advantages over petrodiesel, such as inherent lubricity, low toxicity, derivation from a renewable and domestic feedstock, superior flash point and biodegradability, negligible sulfur content, and lower exhaust emissions. Important disadvantages of biodiesel include high feedstock cost, inferior storage and oxidative stability. This paper has been studied an environmental and practical method for utilization of soapstock as feedstock into high yield of fatty acid ethyl esters, by using heterogeneous catalysts. A corrosion problems associated could be avoided and product purification protocols reduced, significantly simplifying biodiesel production and reducing cost
