Abstract

In the current study, a heterogeneous solid base catalyst was manufactured by the reaction of waste glass with NaOH and used to generate biodiesel from chicken fat. The surface technical methods were used to characterize the produced catalyst. The active phase in the catalyst was Na2SiO3. The data showed that the catalyst is efficient to produce biodiesel from chicken fat (90% efficiency up to fourth stages of reuse). The effect of important variables such as reaction time, temperature, catalyst content, and methanol to oil ratio on the biodiesel production efficiency was optimized by RSM-CCD and artificial neural network (ANN). Maximum biodiesel production was calculated as 98.77% and 97.74% using RSM-CCD and ANN, respectively. The quality of the produced biodiesel was checked by ASTM D 6751 and EN 11214 standards. Also, the produced biodiesel was not toxic to plant and microorganisms and it is a biocompatible fuel.
