The objective of this new paper was to evaluate the enzymatic esterification reaction conducted in supercritical or near-critical CO2, catalyzed by immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB). biocatalyst prepared through immobilization CALB covalent attachment using chitosan sequentially activated with Glycidol, ethylenediamine (EDA) and glutaraldehyde as support. In order determine best operational conditions (1: 1 (alcohol-acid); content, 10% (by substrate mass); 45 °C), an...
Density ρ and viscosity η were measured for binary mixtures of cotton seed + babassu soybean biodiesel over the composition range at several temperatures (293.15, 313.15, 333.15, 353.15, 373.15) K atmospheric pressure. The deviation (Δη) was determined fitted by a Redlich−Kister type function in terms mass fraction (w). Joback's method combined with Lee−Kesler Rackett equations used to calculate densities biodiesel. experimental estimated density values gave almost identical relative...
Biodiesel has many advantages because it is a biodegradable, nontoxic fuel and its production results in less particulate matter. For this reason been studied fields of science as substitute for mineral fuels. Short chain alcohols such ethanol have used extraction soybean sunflower biodiesel the literature. The present paper reports liquid–liquid equilibrium data systems containing + glycerol at (293.15 323.15) K (298.15 313.15) K. Binodal curves were obtained by cloud-point method, while...
This paper presents the values of viscosity (η) and density (ρ) binary blends sunflower biodiesel + diesel fish oil over entire range proportion at several temperatures. Temperatures (293.15, 313.15, 333.15, 353.15, 373.15) K atmospheric pressure were studied. Excess volumes (VE) deviations viscosities (Δη) have been calculated from experimental data. These thermodynamic properties are essential in understanding intermolecular interactions between different molecules biodiesel, it is...
Ionic liquids are potential solvents for liquid extraction processes; thermodynamic modeling of liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data is essential the optimization and operation these processes. Therefore, ternary LLE in systems involving ionic have been investigated by several years. In most cases, has made using NRTL model; some UNIQUAC model also used. The structural parameters determined either empirical correlations or, more recently, through quantum mechanics calculation. This work a...
Sulfolane, alcohols, and glycols are commonly used as solvents in different industrial recovery processes. The focus of the present work is to measure volumetric (densities, ρ) transport (dynamic viscosity, η) properties binary mixtures sulfolane + 2-butanol (or 2-propanol, diethylene glycol, or triethylene glycol) within a temperature range from T = 303.15 K 343.15 K, at atmospheric pressure. Densities viscosities were measured using viscodensimeter (Anton Paar SVM 3000 Digital Oscillation...
Liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) data play an important role in the project and design of separation processes. The aim this work was to study LLE solubility (binodal) curves tie-lines for glycerol (1) + ethanol (2) coconut biodiesel (3) system at two different temperatures [(293.15 323.15) K], atmospheric pressure. From experimental data, it could be observed that relative mutual is higher phase than phase. A consistency analysis has been performed by using Othmer–Tobias correlation....
