Quality of chemically modified hemp fibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
Hemp fibers are very interesting natural material for textile and technical applications now. Applying hemp fibers to the apparel sector requires improved quality fibers. In this paper, hemp fibers were modified with sodium ...
Enzymatic conversion of sunflower oil to biodiesel in a solvent-free system: Process optimization and the immobilized system stability
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The feasibility of using the commercial immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica (Novozyme 435) to synthesize biodiesel from sunflower oil in a solvent-free system has been proved. Using methanol as an acyl acceptor and ...
Biodiesel synthesis at high pressure and temperature: Analysis of energy consumption on industrial scale
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Analysis of several different schemes for industrial FAME production at higher pressure and temperature (catalytic or non-catalytic synthesis) was realized with the aim to find the best route to reduce the energy consumption ...
The effects of hemicelluloses and lignin removal on water uptake behavior of hemp fibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
This study investigated the individual influences of hemicelluloses and lignin removal on the water uptake behavior of hemp fibers. Hemp fibers with different content of either hemicelluloses or lignin were obtained by ...
Alumina/silica supported K2CO3 as a catalyst for biodiesel synthesis from sunflower oil
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The new type of catalyst for fatty acid methyl esters (FAME or biodiesel) synthesis with K2CO3 as active component on alumina/silica support was synthesized using sol-gel method. Corresponding catalyst (xerogel) was prepared ...
Kinetics of sunflower oil methanolysis at low temperatures
(Elsevier Ltd, 2008)
The kinetics of the sunflower oil methanolysis process was studied at lower temperatures (10-30 °C). The sigmoidal kinetics of the process was explained by the mass transfer controlled region in the initial heterogenous ...
The effect of agitation intensity on alkali-catalyzed methanolysis of sunflower oil
(Elsevier, 2007)
The sunflower oil methanolysis was studied in a stirred reactor at different agitation speeds. The measurements of drop size, drop size distribution and the conversion degree demonstrate the effects of the agitation speed ...
