In this work the zeolites Mordenite, ZSM5, Y, Beta and Ferrierite, were employed as heterogeneous catalysts for the alkyl esters synthesis by esterification, aiming the application of these zeolites for the biodiesel production. As a model reaction to evaluate the catalytic activity of these zeolites, the esterification of oleic acid with methanol and the esterification of octanoic acid with methanol, ethanol and propanol were performed. For the reactions performed, different reaction parameters were used, such as different fatty acid:alcohol molar ratios, reaction temperatures and catalyst amounts, aiming to observe the corresponding ester conversion over time. The zeolites used were characterized by Thermogravimetry, EGA, FTIR, XRD, 27Al ...
