The lab and bench scale experiments were carded out effectively, in which the kinetic model is established and it can describe the transesterification reaction well. The Antoine equation of biodiesel is regressed with the vapor-liquid data cited of literature. The non-random two liquid （NRTL） model is applied to describe the system of fatty acid methyl ester （FAME）, methanol and glycerol and parameters are obtained. The Ternary phase map is obtained from Aspen Plus via the liquid-liquid equilibrium （LLE） data. In order to describe the production in a fixed-bed performs in industrial scale after being magnified 1 000 times, the Aspen Plus simulation is employed, where two flowsheets are simulated to predict material and energy consumption. The simulation results prove that at least 350. 42 kW energy consumption can be reduced per hour to produce per ton biodiesel compared with data reported in previous references.展开更多

First, the effects of carrier/active components mass ratio, calcination temperature and calcination time on catalytic activity were investigated aiming at biodiesel yield, and the optimal process conditions for preparation of KOH/CaO/C catalysts were: mass ratio of C/CaO was 4:6;KOH solution (mass concentration) was 25%;impregnation time was 24 h;drying temperature was 105°C and time was 4 h;calcination temperature was 500°C and time was 5 h. Then the complex catalysts prepared under the optimal conditions were applied to synthesize biodiesel, and the effects of dose of catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time on the yield of biodiesel were investigated. At last, the optimal process conditions for synthesis of biodiesel were concluded: methanol-oil ratio was 10:1;catalyst dose was 2% of that of soybean oil;reaction temperature was 65°C;reaction time was 5 h. The yield of as-prepared biodiesel could be 98%.展开更多

The particle diameter of the catalyst was about 50 nm, which was measured by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The variables affecting the yield of biodiesel during transesterification, such as mass ratio of KNO3 to γ-Al2O3, calcination temperature, calcination time, catalyst content, molar ratio of methanol to oil, reaction temperature and reaction time were investigated. The catalyst obtained by calcining a mixture of KNO3 and γ-Al2O3 （mKNO3/mγ-Al2O3 =70 %） at 600℃ for 3 h, was found to be the optimum one, which gave the highest catalytic activity in the reaction. With 3% （mcatalyst/moil） catalyst, when the transesterification was carried out at a molar ratio of methanol to oil of 12 ： ：1, a reaction temperature of 70℃, and a reaction time of 3 h, yield of 94% was achieved.展开更多
