In this study, fatty acid was upgraded to fatty acid methyl ester using sulfonated biochar as solid acid catalyst. The optimal conditions resulted in a high conversion yield of 97.05%. The catalyst exhibited high acidity and stability, attributed to its functionalized structure.
Herein, fatty acid (oleic acid, OA) was upgraded to fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) via esterification reaction using sulfonated biochar obtained from eucalyptus tree shed bark as solid acid catalyst. Under the optimal esterification conditions (i.e., at 65 degrees C for 2 h using a methanol/OA molar ratio of 10 : 1 with a catalyst dosage of 4 wt%), the FAME yield was 97.05 +/- 0.28% when a solid acid catalyst prepared by loading 6 g of p-Toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) on 2 g of activated biochar (p-TSA(3)/ABC) was used. The remarkable performance of the p-TSA(3)/ABC could be attributed to its high acidity (468.8 mu mol g(-1)) and dominance of the SO3H acid site on the catalyst surface. Experimental findings showed that the p-TSA(3)/ABC was relatively stable due to its highly functionalized structure. The catalyst was recycled for five successive cycles and exhibited no dramatic decrease in catalytic activity.
