Extraction kinetics of fatty acids ethyl esters (FAEE) from oil phase using aqueous ethanol

There is a need for alternative energy sources to replace petroleum based fuels due to the world’s crude oil reserves, global warming and environmental concerns. Biodiesel is clean, biodegradable, non-toxic and renewable fuel which is considered to be the best substitution for diesel fuel. In additi...

Biodiesel is clean, biodegradable, non-toxic and renewable fuel which is considered to be the best substitution for diesel fuel. In addition, biodiesel has more favourable combustion emission profile, such as low emissions of carbon monoxide, particulate matter and unburned hydrocarbons that make it suitable as alternative fuel in transportation sector. The main issue in biodiesel production is the expensive and non-stable supply of feedstock from vegetable oils. Alternatively, waste cooking oil, tallow and non-edible oils are favourable, although they are restricted feedstock for existing conventional productions of biodiesel due to its impurities such as food residue, biopolymer, cellular remaining, dissolved water and free fatty acids which necessitate additional acidic pre-treatments. The need of extension to the current biodiesel plants resulted in a pursuit of more viable process. One of the potential methods to produce biodiesel from low grade oils and cheap bioethanol is through the extractive reactor.
