XRD, BET, TGA, and TPD-CO2 analysis were employed to evaluate the physicochemical properties of the prepared catalysts. The catalytic performance of the synthesized catalysts was tested in biodiesel production via transesterification from date seed oil under different reaction conditions. It was found that catalyst prepared at 900 °C exhibited excellent transesterification activity and provided maximum yield of fatty acid methyl esters up to 93.5 under optimal reaction conditions, i.e. reaction time of 1.5 h, methanol�oil molar ratio of 12:1, and catalyst amount of 5 wt.. In addition, the catalyst exhibited substantial stability and reusability during biodiesel conversion. © 2018 Institution of Chemical Engineers date: 2018 publisher: Institution of Chemical Engineers official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85042396126&doi=10.1016%2fj.cherd.2018.02.002&partnerID=40&md5=5471d0178a68cf32025c5f57d4b772c9 id_number: 10.1016/j.cherd.2018.02.002 full_text_status: none publication: Chemical Engineering Research and Design volume: 132 pagerange: 644-651 refereed: TRUE issn: 02638762 citation: Farooq, M. and Ramli, A. and Naeem, A. and Mahmood, T. and Ahmad, S. and Humayun, M. and Islam, M.G.U.
