ZSM-5-based catalysis are versatile catalytic systems for a wide range of laboratory studies. The chemical composition, ion exchange, and pore size structure attributes of zeolites are responsible for their extensive catalytic applications. Generally, ZSM-5 catalysis are used with variation of impregnation of transition metal for esterification and transesterification process. Esterification and transesterification are both of the important and routinely processes in diverse fields of organic synthesis. It has a long history in laboratory work due to its versatility for biodiesel production. This review intends to give a detailed insight into the significance of ZSM-5-based catalysis for biodiesel production, such as the used method of its synthesis, the structural characterization with XRD, XRF, and SEM instrument. Then, this article describes about the potential of ZSM-5-based catalysis for biodiesel production with its yield. So, we can get the information of the optimization of ZSM-5-based catalysis that can catalysis in esterification and transesterification process for biodiesel production. © 2023 Author(s).
