“…The major processing conditions that affect the yield of transformation and have been recognized by many studies include the methanol/oil molar ratio, amount of catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time [67][68][69][70][71]. The methanol's boiling point restricted the reaction temperature.…”

This study focuses on the optimization of biodiesel synthesis using non-edible hempseed oil as the feedstock. The Response Surface method was used to find the best methanol:oil molar ratio, catalyst concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction duration for the transesterification process. The center composite design experimental design was used to make the design. A total of 30 cycles were conducted to adjust the four parameters at five different levels in order to optimize the biodiesel production process. It was found that the best conditions for transesterification of hempseed oil were a KOH catalyst concentration of 0.80 wt%, a molar ratio of 7.41:1, a reaction time of 62.83 minutes, and a reaction temperature of 61.92 °C. Under these optimized reaction conditions, the predicted biodiesel yield was 95.57%, while the experimental yield was 95.24%. The biodiesel produced using the optimized parameters was analyzed for its properties, and the findings demonstrated that it met the requirements of EN14214, a standard for biodiesel quality. The optimization of the biodiesel synthesis process using non-edible hempseed oil contributes to the exploration of alternative and sustainable feedstocks for biodiesel production. The values of the produced biodiesel within the standard range demonstrate its suitability for commercial applications and strengthen the potential of hemp seed oil as a suitable raw material for biodiesel production.

“…Furthermore, adding excess catalyst after maximum conversion leads to an increase in the mixture's viscosity, which in turn increases the mass transfer resistance, reducing the contact between the catalyst and reactants by affecting the conversion of the biodiesel (Tukaram et al 2021). It is also observed that the reaction reached its equilibrium.…”

The reusable magnetic bifunctional nano-catalyst (Fe 3 O 4 .Cs 2 O) was synthesized by co-precipitation and incipient wetness impregnation method. It was utilized for the transesteri cation of Madhuca indica (M. indica) oil with methanol. The prepared catalyst, cesium oxide doped on the nano-magnetite core was characterized by using Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Further, the activity of the catalyst was investigated by subjecting it to biodiesel reaction. To maximize the biodiesel conversion, studies were carried out by varying the parameters like catalyst concentration, methanol-to-oil molar ratio, reaction temperature and reaction time. The yield of 97.4 wt% was obtained at the holding conditions: 18:1 methanol-to-oil ratio, 7 wt% catalyst loading, 65°C reaction temperature and 300 min of reaction time. Moreover, the catalyst recyclability was also studied and found that it can be recycled up to 12 cycles with a conversion of above 90%. The biodiesel's fuel properties were analyzed and compared with the ASTM standard.
