Transesterification of soybean oil to biodiesel with Zn/I2 catalyst

---

Abstract.
Zn/I2 was found to be a practical and effective catalyst for the transesterification of soybean oil with methanol. A study for optimizing the reaction conditions such as the molar ratio of methanol to oil, the reaction time and the catalyst amount, was performed. The highest conversion of 96% was obtained under the optimum conditions. Further, the effect of free fatty acids and water in the soybean oil on the catalytic activity of the catalysts was also investigated.

KEY WORDS: iodine; zinc; biodiesel; transesterification
