Abstract

Biodiesel manufacture usually applies liquid catalyst (homogenic catalyst) that deals with some obstacles, such as difficulty in catalyst product separation as they are in the same liquid phase, corrosive characters, excessive catalyst cannot be reused, and complicated to be handled. An alternative for a better process is solid catalyst as a heterogeneous system between raw material and product. Bentonite has layer structures and a potential to be used as solid catalyst by activation process. Three methods of activation process had been conducted,namely 60°C-heating; 60°C-heating followed by 1 week settling and 2 weeks settlement. Each method was performed in sulphuric acid and the chemical content of Al2O3 and SiO2 was observed. An activated bentonite has a molar ratio of SiO2 and Al2O3 between 6 - 9. All methods resulted in expected molar ratio, but the 2 weeks settlement process without heating provided more significant result which means it performed energy saving compared to other methods.

Abstract

Fly ash could be utilized as alumina and silica sources material. It could be treated by the following processes of demagnetisation, sinterization, grinding, mixing with crushed bricks as well as fired cement to create acid based on castable refractory. Sinterization changes alumina and silica signifi- cantly into mullite. The standard measurement of pyrometric cone equivalent (PCE) is used to under- stand the temperature resistance of the studied castable refractory based fly ash. The temperature resistance seems to increase after contacting with high temperature at longer time or repeatedly until reaching its Si-Al stabilization phase.
