Acid–base bifunctional HPA nanocatalysts promoting heterogeneous transesterification and esterification reactions

Abstract

A new catalytic system including acid–base bifunctional heteropolyacids (HPAs) nanocatalyst is presented, for the simultaneous transesterification of oil and esterification of free fatty acids (FFAs), to directly convert low quality feedstocks to biodiesel in a one-pot process.
