K2MgSiO4: A novel K+-trapped biodiesel heterogeneous catalyst produced from serpentinite Mg3Si2O5(OH)4

[Display omitted] •A new basic catalyst was produced by the serpentinite impregnation with KOH.•The potassium and thermal treatment of serpentinite leads to a new phase K2MgSiO4.•The material can be used for biodiesel production. In this study, a new catalyst for biodiesel synthesis, based on K2MgSi...
