Abstract

The increasing world population, rapid industrialization, urbanization, and economic growth have led to a continuous increase in the consumption of fossil fuels to meet the ever-increasing demand for energy. Continuous emissions from burning fossil fuels will create a need to find appropriate and sustainable substitutes for fossil fuels. Biodiesel is the right alternative solution for diesel engines because it is renewable, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly. Waste cooking oil (WCO) from the food, non-food, restaurant, and household sectors is produced on a large scale in every country and can contribute to environmental pollution if proper disposal systems are not applied. Instead of throwing it landfills Environmental pollution can be minimized by recycling WCO. This study evaluates the potential of using WCO to produce biodiesel using zeolite synthesized from fly ash as a heterogeneous alkali catalyst through a transesterification reaction. The reactor in this study used a 1,000 ml three-necked boiling flask equipped with a condenser, cooling tank, and pump. Stirring and heating during the process of biodiesel production using a magnetic stirrer and a hot plate. The thermometer is used to measure the reaction temperature. Optimization of biodiesel production from zeolite catalyst synthesized from fly ash based on variations in the ratio of methanol: oil (8:1; 10:1; 12:1; and 14:1), catalyst weight (1, 2, 3, and 4% weight), and temperature (45 oC, 55 oC, and 65oC). Zeolite from fly ash produces biodiesel with a yield of 91.67% with optimum operating conditions reaction time of 60 minutes, methanol oil ratio of 8:1, operating temperature 55oC, and the amount of catalyst 1% by weight. This experiment confirms the possibility of utilizing fly ash waste for the application of catalysts in biodiesel production.

Abstract

Burning coal in a Coal-Fired Power Plant produces by-products like fly ash and bottom ash. Zeolite synthesized from the ash in Teluk Sirih Coal-Fired Power Plant was applied as a catalyst in the biodiesel transesterification reaction. Zeolite synthesis used the hydrothermal method with acid pretreatment. The operating conditions for fly ash zeolite are a 2.4-molar ratio SiO2/Al2O3 and a crystallization time of 6 hours. The bottom ash zeolite used a 2.0-molar ratio SiO2/Al2O3 and a crystallization time of 8 hours. The performance test of the synthesized catalyst was carried out in the transesterification reaction using waste cooking oil as a raw material with a free fatty acid content of 0.7%. The synthesized catalyst was characterized using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and Bruneuer-emmet-teller. The biodiesel with the highest yield was analyzed based on SNI 7182: 2015. The synthesis results of the catalyst produced type A zeolite, shown by the typical X-ray diffraction pattern and supported by the morphological test results using a cube-shaped. The surface area of zeolite fly ash and bottom ash is 12.87 m2/g and 5.13 m2/g. The test showed fly ash zeolite had the highest biodiesel yield of 89.66%. Based on the characterization using SNI 7182: 2015, the color and free glycerol met the standards, while density 40 C, kinematic viscosity 40 C, acid number, total glycerol, methyl ester content, and water content did not meet the standards.
