<p>The present invention describes a process for converting high free fatty acid containing feed stocks( FFA 20-85 %) like palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD),restaurant grease, waste cooking oil, Soya deodistillate, acid oil, jatropha curcas oil, mohua oil etc. to biodiesel, which involves esterification of FFA containing oil with lower alcohols like methanol, ethanol, propanol etc. in presence of macro reticular and gel type acidic heterogenous resin as catalyst to bring down acid value in the range of 1-2 mgKOH/g followed by transesterification in presence of homogeneous basic catalyst metal oxides, hydroxides and alkoxides like sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium methoxide, potassium methoxide etc. and separation of biodiesel and glycerine.</p> |
