A Mesoporous SiO2/γ-Fe2O3/KI Heterogeneous Magnetic Catalyst for the Green Synthesis of Biodiesel

A magnetic catalyst (sample MCat) consisting of KI supported on a mixture of silica and maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) was prepared and used in the transesterification reaction for the synthesis of biodiesel. The energy dispersive X-ray spectrum of the catalyst showed signals due to Si, Fe, K, and I. Powder X-...
