Multifunctional halloysite and hectorite catalysts for effective transformation of biomass to biodiesel
Abstract Halloysite surface was modified with tetrabutylammonium iodide, and then the obtained nanomaterial was used as support for ZnO nanoparticles. After characterization, the nanomaterial was used as a catalyst for fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) production. The recyclability of the nanomaterial was also investigated, and the optimization of reaction conditions by the design of experiments approach was performed as well. In addition, the synthesized nanomaterial was tested as a catalyst for FAME production from a series of waste lipids affording biodiesel in moderate to good yields (35–95%), depending on the matrix. To fully exploit the feasibility of clay minerals as catalysts in biodiesel formation, a screening of different clays and clay minerals with different morphologies and compositions, such as sepiolite, palygorskite, bentonite, and hectorite was also performed in the esterification of FFAs (a mixture of 1:1 palmitic and stearic acids). Finally, hectorite, chosen as a model of 2:1 clay minerals, was covalently modified, and tested as a catalyst in the esterification of FFAs.

Highlights TBAI covalently linked on halloysite surface was used as support for ZnO NPs. The nanomaterial was used as a catalyst for fatty acid methyl esters production. It was used on a series of waste lipids affording biodiesel in moderate to good yields (35–95%). A screening of different clay minerals with different morphologies and composition was also performed. Hectorite was covalent modified to improve catalytic activity in the esterification of free fatty acids.
