A catalyst is added to a chemical
reaction to increase the pace of the reaction without getting consumed in the
process. Catalysts used to produce bio- fuels are known as bio- fuel catalysts.
Bio- fuels are great substitutes for petro- diesel fuels. Bio- fuels are
produced through a process called transesterification with the help of
catalysts.
These catalysts can be both
homogenous and heterogenous. The most commonly used catalysts to speed the
transesterification reaction are homogeneous alkaline catalysts like NaOH, KOH,
CH3ONa and CH3OK because they have high kinetic reaction
rates. But heterogeneous catalysts are developing in an increasing rate due to
difficulties associated with using homogeneous catalysts
like low quality feed stocks and high cost of refined feedstocks. Heterogenous
catalysts like solid and enzyme catalysts overcome all the shortcomings of
homogenous catalysts. Bio- catalysts in general are advantageous in terms of
not having to be purified. This is one of the primary reasons why bio-
catalysts are driving the bio- fuel production. The reason for choosing a
specific type of bio- catalyst depends on factors like raw material and amount
of fatty free acid. These bio- catalysts are used in oil refineries and oi
processing enterprises.
Europe to meet its target of
reducing green house gases emission by 85-90% by 2050 has given bio- fuel industry
a boom since bio- fuels are renewable. Extensive use of fossil fuels are the
major contributors to global warming and the use of bio- fuels instead of
petrol- diesel fuels will help in reducing the carbon footprints and also reduce
the cost of production. Extensive research and development are undertaken by
various research organisations and companies to develop better bio-
catalysts. Various economies have varied
reasons for the growing demand for bio- catalysts. Due to the thriving
automotive market in European countries, Europe is one of the largest
consumption markets in the bio- fuel catalysts market. Other reasons include
reduced oil dependency, increase in the use of diesel vehicles and government initiatives
to gradually reduce and eliminate the use of petrol- diesel fuels.
