Ghanaian Clay as a Catalyst for Transesterificating Shea Butter Oil as Alternative Feedstock for Green Energy Production
In this study, catalytic transesterification of Shea butter oil with methanol to biodiesel was carried out. The clay particle was first sieved with a 250 ml sieve and then calcined at 800μC for 8 hours in a furnace. The calcined clay was then modified with 5% each of Zn(NO3)2 and SnCl2 separately fo...
