Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of catalysts, and in particular relates to a solid base catalyst for preparing biodiesel. Background technique
[0002] Biodiesel refers to clean alternative fuels produced from renewable biological resources such as plants and animal fats that can be used in compression ignition engines. The main components are ester compounds formed by long-chain saturated unsaturated fatty acids such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid with methanol or ethanol. Biodiesel has the characteristics of high cetane number, better anti-knock performance than petrochemical diesel; non-toxic, does not contain aromatic components; high flash point, which is conducive to transportation safety; good low temperature fluidity, can be widely used and so on. Moreover, biodiesel can be directly used with existing diesel engines and blended with petrochemical diesel in a certain proportion, which can reduce fuel consumption, im...
