TL;DR: In this article, a robust base-catalyzed transesterification reaction mechanism was proposed based on FTIR result, which showed high turnover frequency and meager value of Environmental-factor which implies the catalyst is well efficient for fast production of biodiesel with minute waste generation.

TL;DR: Barium cerate, a novel solid base catalyst was employed in transesterification reaction for biodiesel production as mentioned in this paper, which was characterized by Thermogravimetric analyses, powder X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy attached with energy dispersive unit, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Barium stannate perovskite was synthesized to evaluate its activity and stability as a solid base catalyst in biodiesel synthesis from waste cooking oil (WCO). Physicochemical characterizations of the catalyst and feedstock were thoroughly investigated by various techniques as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: All the important fuel properties of prepared biodiesel from waste cooking oil was discerned within the range laid by ASTM D-6751 standards for biodiesel which coined the compatibility of prepared methyl ester with CI engines as a substitute of diesel fuel.

TL;DR: Strontium titanate was synthesized by polymer precursor method and its catalytic activity as heterogeneous basic catalyst was tested in transesterification reaction for high-quality biodiesel production form Madhuca indica oil.
