Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

A multivariate method for transesterification of soybean oil to produce biodiesel was performed using calcined Mg–Al layered double hydroxide as catalyst. The conversion reached 95.4 % using the optimal conditions. The performance of the catalyst for acid oil and high water content was evaluated. The catalysts were characterized and evaluated for their stability.
