The physico-chemical, textural, and morphological properties of the catalyst were evaluated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and temperature programmed desorption (TPD)�CO2 techniques. The synthesized catalyst showed considerable stability, efficient catalytic activity, and negligible metal leaching. The satisfactory performance of the catalyst could be ascribed to the presence of basic sites of different strength on the surface of the catalyst. The catalyst produced maximum biodiesel yield of 96 at optimum reaction conditions of 90°C reaction temperature, methanol to oil molar ratio of 10:1, catalyst dosage of 6 wt, and reaction time of 2 hours. Moreover, the catalyst showed substantial reusability up to five reaction cycles without any considerable decrease in transesterification activity. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. date: 2019 publisher: John Wiley and Sons Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85067525320&doi=10.1002%2fer.4646&partnerID=40&md5=dcca0572d429f6c8bfd5eb9589557024 id_number: 10.1002/er.4646 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Energy Research volume: 43 number: 10 pagerange: 5438-5446 refereed: TRUE issn: 0363907X citation: Farooq, M. and Ramli, A. and Naeem, A. and Noman, M. and Shah, L.A. and Khattak, N.S. and Perveen, F.
