Novel Utilization of Waste Marine Sponge (Demospongiae) as a Catalyst In Ultrasound-Assisted Transesterification of Waste Cooking Oil

This study demonstrates the potential of Na-silica waste sponge as a source of low cost catalyst in the transesterification of waste cooking oil aided by ultrasound. In this work an environmentally friendly and efficient transesterification process using Na-loaded SiO2 from waste sponge skeletons as...
