Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2012, Volume 6, Issue 4,   Pages 403-409 doi: 10.1007/s11705-012-1224-2

Abstract: The use of metakaolinite as a catalyst in the transesterification reaction of waste cooking oil withKaolinite was thermally activated by dehydroxylation to obtain the metakaolinite phase.Metakaolinite samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, N adsorption-desorption, simultaneousAfter eight consecutive reaction cycles, the metakaolinite can be recovered and reused after being washedThe results showed that metakaolinite is a prominent, inexpensive, reusable and thermally stable catalyst
