The catalytic transesterification properties of the prepared ILs were investigated through the synthesis of biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO). The biodiesel synthesis was performed in two-step processes. Initially, the WCO was esterified with sulphuric acid to reduce its acid value (0.7 mg KOH/g). Later the transesterification reaction was carried out with the prepared ILs, and the process was optimized with respect to IL types, catalyst loading, methanol�oil ratios, temperature, agitation speed and time. Tetrabutylphosphonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (TBPNTf2) was identified as a promising catalyst with the highest yield of biodiesel up to 81% at 4.5 wt% of IL loading, 18:1 ratio of methanol:WCO, 10 h of treatment time, 60 °C heating temperature and 600 rpm of agitation speed. The obtained product of biodiesel was characterized and analysed by different techniques, and its physicochemical properties were further determined using the known standard methods of American Society for Testing and Materials and European standards (ASTM and EN). © 2018, Islamic Azad University (IAU). date: 2019 publisher: Center for Environmental and Energy Research and Studies official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85062629945&doi=10.1007%2fs13762-018-1735-6&partnerID=40&md5=adef34ce3f5e6d4febf9fcdff152257b id_number: 10.1007/s13762-018-1735-6 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology volume: 16 number: 3 pagerange: 1269-1276 refereed: TRUE issn: 17351472 citation: Ullah, Z. and Bustam, M.A. and Man, Z. and Khan, A.S. and Sarwono, A. and Muhammad, N. and Farooq, M. and Shah, S.N. and Ahmad, P. and Haider, S.
