This Research has been done to analyze Zeolite Y CBV 712 as a catalyst. Zeolite Y CBV 712 was dealuminated by treating it with H2SO4 solution, with 3 – 8 M concentration at 40 – 60 oC. The dealumination treatment runs for 4 hours. Then, dealuminated zeolite was calcinated with a furnace for 3 hours with temperature range between 500 – 600 oC. Dealuminated zeolit Y then tested to synthesize Glycerol Mono Laurate (GML). By Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) analyze, indicated that the higher Glycerol Monolaurate yield, X2 factor is the most significance factor, indicating with high F-value (29.60768) and low P-value (0.001600). Objective function from this tests, is used to determine the optimum value between dealumination temperature (X1), acid concentration used (X2) and calcinating temperature (X3). The relation between each operating variables and the responses is shown in mathematical equation below :
The optimum condition obtained is 43.25oC for dealumination temperature, 5.45 M for acid concentration and 614oC for calcination temperature. According to the optimum condition obtained, the glycerol monolaurate yield obtained is 59.470%.
