Continuous sunflower oil methanolysis over quicklime in a packed-bed tubular reactor
(Elsevier Ltd, 2015)
The continuous sunflower oil methanolysis catalyzed by quicklime in a packed-bed tubular reactor of 60 cm height was studied at 60 °C using methanol-to-oil molar ratios from 6:1 to 18:1 and weight hourly space velocities ...
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 ...
Modeling the kinetics of calcium hydroxide catalyzed methanolysis of sunflower oil
(Elsevier, 2010)
The kinetics of Ca(OH)2-catalyzed methanolysis of sunflower oil was studied at a moderate temperature (60 °C), a methanol-to-oil molar ratio (6:1) and different catalyst amounts (from 1% to 10% based on oil weight). The ...
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 ...
Decrease of free fatty acid content in vegetable oil using silica supported ferric sulfate catalyst
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
A difficulty of biodiesel synthesis based on alkaline catalysts obviously exists if free fatty acids (FFAs) content in vegetable oil is above 0.5 wt.%. In this study, the ferric sulfate supported on silica (Fe-2(SO4)(3)/SiO2) ...
