This study highlights the significance of lemon peel powder in the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. The synthesis of ZnO/MCM41 with core-shell morphology was achieved using a simple one-pot method. Various characterizations confirmed the formation of the catalyst. The use of composite materials in Jatropha to bio-diesel production resulted in a high conversion rate, and the produced biodiesel demonstrated promising performance when blended with diesel fuel.
This study demonstrates the importance of lemon peel powder in the formation of ZnO nanoparticles. The facile synthesis of core-shell morphological ZnO/MCM41 was achieved in a one-pot approach. The catalyst formation was confirmed by XRD, nitrogen adsorption-desorption studies, TGA, DSC, and SEM analysis. Jatropha to bio-diesel production was concisely performed using the composite materials and the futuristic result are presented and discussed in this paper. Different coating % of ZnO over MCM-41 (10%, 20%, and 30%) were examined for their performance in biodiesel conversion. A maximum of 99.4% conversion of Jatropha oil was observed using the catalyst ZnO/MCM-41 (20%). A detailed analysis of the produced biodiesel was performed using NMR and GC. Due to the high saponification value and iodine number, a large % of higher methyl ester composition was observed. The produced biodiesel (BD) was further blended with the diesel (D) fuel (90 % to 30 %) and examined for its performance in the engine. Smoke emission and power of the engine was found to be excellent for the 90BD:10D blend.
