The first part of this chapter is intended to survey recent literature on new catalytic materials because the development of new types of metal oxides and layered- and carbon-based materials with different morphologies opens up novel acid-base catalysis that enables new type of clean reaction technologies. Mechanistic considerations of acid- and base-catalyzed reactions should result in new clean catalytic processes for Green and Sustainable Chemistry, for example, transformations of biorenewable feedstock into value-added chemicals and fuels [21-35]. The latter part of this chapter, therefore, focuses on biomass conversion using solid acid and base catalysts, which covers recent developments on acid-base, one-pot reaction systems for carbon-carbon bond formations, and biomass conversion including synthesis of furfurals from sugars, biodiesel production, and glycerol utilization.

The purpose of this chapter is to introduce conventional methods in biodiesel production and their challenges, but the center of attention is on the novel technology used in biodiesel production, membrane reactors, in which both production and separation occur simultaneously. Membrane reactors have the ability to block the passage of unreacted TG to final biodiesel product. This phenomenon has the benefits of providing high-quality biodiesel fuel (Atadashi, Aroua, Abdul Aziz, 201 la). 

The challenges of conventional methods in biodiesel production and the importance of cost and energy saving have led to the apphcation of novel reactors to improve transesterification reaction and eliminate problems.
