Metal hydroxides and alkoxides are used as base catalysts for biodiesel production. When metalhydroxides are dissolved in alcohol, they produce water, which can react with triglycerides (TGs) andproduce free fatty acids (FFAs) rather than the desired fatty acid alkyl esters. Metal alkoxides are moreexpensive to produce and their transportation is hazardous. In this study, potassium alkoxide catalystswere synthesized from potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution and glycerol, which is by-product ofbiodiesel production process, by heating 50% KOH solution and glycerol at different mole ratios,temperatures and vacuum pressures. These operating parameters were optimized and their interactiveeffect on catalyst synthesis was studied by using response surface methodology (RSM). This study alsofocused on the development of a correlation relating the effects of these variables with drying behavior ofreagents during catalyst synthesis. The results indicated that KOH to glycerol mole ratio and vacuum pressure had the most significanteffects (P < 0.0001) on free water mass loss during catalyst synthesis. The optimum reaction conditionwas KOH to glycerol mole ratio of 2:1, reaction temperature 130 C and vacuum pressure 113 mbar. X-raypowder diffraction showed that glycerol derived alkoxide compounds were predominantly monopotassiumsubstituted alkoxides that occur as adducts with potassium hydroxide. The glyceroxidecatalyst prepared at 3:1 mole ratio of KOH:glycerol has improved biodiesel yield to that of conventionalpotassium methoxide (KOCH3) catalyst.
Thermal degradation and kinetic study for different waste/rejected plastic materials
Jigisha Kamal Parikh,Srujal Rana,Pravakar Mohanty 한국화학공학회 2013 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.30 No.3
A kinetic analysis based on thermal decomposition of rejected polypropylene, plastic film and plastic pellets collected from different industrial outlet has been carried out. Non-isothermal experiments using different heating rates of 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 oC min−1 have been performed from ambient to 700 oC in a thermo-balance with the objective of determining the kinetic parameters. The values of activation energy and frequency factor were found to be in the range of 107-322 kJ/mol, 85-331 kJ/mol, 140-375 kJ/mol and 3.49E+07-4.74E+22 min−1, 3.52E+06-2.88E+22min−1,7.28E+13-1.17E+25 min−1 for rejected polypropylene, plastic film and plastic pellets, respectively, by Coats-Redfern and Ozawa methods including different models. Kissinger method, a model free analysis is also adopted to find the kinetic parameters. Activation energy and frequency factor were found to be 108 kJ/mol, 98 kJ/mol, 132 kJ/mol and 6.89E+03, 2.12E+02, 8.06E+05 min−1 for rejected polypropylene, plastic film and plastic pellets, respectively, by using the Kissinger method.
