A novel transesterification process for biodiesel production has been developed. Bentonite was used as a water adsorbent to remove moisture from the biodiesel synthesis reaction system. Diethyl ether (DEE) was used as a co-solvent to improve the mutual solubility of oil and methanol. The influence of concentration of NaOH, DEE/methanol molar ratio, methanol/oil molar ratio, amount of bentonite, agitation...
The use of bentonite as a water adsorbent to remove moisture from the biodiesel synthesis reaction system could produce an important enhancement to the transesterification process. The influence of concentration of NaOH, methanol/oil molar ratio, amount of bentonite, agitation rate, reaction temperature and reaction time was investigated. Based on the results of single factor experiments, response...
A new reaction system for biodiesel production by the base-catalyzed transesterification process has been developed. Bentonite is used as a water adsorbent in the traditional homogeneous base-catalyzed transesterification reaction system to create a heterogeneous system that improves the reaction efficiency. The influence of bentonite on the NaOH-catalyzed methanolysis of soybean oil and the accompanying...
