Preliminary study on effect of hydrothermal temperature during TiO2 synthesis on the biodiesel production from waste cooking oil

In the present work, effect of hydrothermal temperature from 120 to 160 °C on TiO2 physicochemical properties as well as its photocatalytic activity towards biodiesel production using waste cooking oil (WCO) was investigated. TiO2 was synthesized via hydrothermal method using Titanium butoxide, Ti(O...
