my.uniten.dspace-207622023-05-05T13:28:54Z Synthesis and Characterization of Cellulose Derived Solid Acid Catalyst for Biodiesel Production Mohamad Nasrat Bin Mustapa Cellulose Catalyst Biodiesel Interim Semester 2020 / 2021 ABSTRACT The cellulose derived solid acid catalyst shown a good potential in the various applications. The cellulose derived from the cellulose have great advantage that can be explore significantly especially as it proved in the catalyst separation. The several step on preparing the solid acid catalyst by inspired by cellulose through direct impregnation of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) with Ferric Sulfate (Fe2(SO4)3 solution before going for oven-drying and calcination process. Then, the catalyst was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Besides, the catalyst was tested through the esterification reaction using waste cooking oil (WCO). The different of catalyst loading was tested during esterification in order to determine the highest conversion percentage. With the value of 9% catalyst loading, it give the result of highest conversion value and lowest percentage of free fatty acid. This study shows that the MCC derived solid acid catalyst can be used in esterification and its heterogenous characteristic can be easily separable and recycle for the next use. 2023-05-03T15:19:15Z 2023-05-03T15:19:15Z 2020-09 https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/20762 application/pdf |
