Discussion

This analysis shows 95% biodiesel yield from oleic acid using a chitosan-based catalyst, suggesting potential for efficient production.

Biodiesel yield reached 95.23% under optimal conditions of methanol-to-oil ratio and catalyst loading, demonstrating high efficiency.
Characterization techniques included energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and thermal analyses, confirming catalyst properties.
The robust chitosan-based catalyst exhibited excellent reusability, maintaining 84.5% yield even after multiple cycles.
Results indicate that the surface area and sulfur content of the catalyst enhance the esterification reaction's effectiveness.

Ahangar et al. (2025) studied this question.
