Biodiesel is a promising alternative for conventional diesel fuel due to the unsustainable feature of the resources and unstable price of the fuels. However, the production cost is higher compared to the conventional ones and is significantly contributed from the feedstock. Realizing that a large portion of used cooking oil (UCO) is generated daily, this review aims to investigate and explore the production of biodiesel from UCO. In the production reaction process, undoubtedly, the catalyst plays an important role. It has been shown that calcium oxide (CaO) is one of the best heterogeneous basic catalysts in the transesterification reaction for biodiesel production. However, the catalyst has a low surface area which restricts the active basic sites to disperse on the catalyst surface. Moreover, CaO catalyst faces leaching problem, poor stability, and porosity which hinder its catalytic activity and reusability. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to review the potential of titanium as a support catalyst to modify CaO supported titanium with a mesoporous structure (mesoporous calcium titanate) by a sol-gelhydrothermal method to overcome the limitations of CaO catalyst.
