Abstract:

 Biodiesel is an excellent substitute for conventional diesel fuel because of being renewable, nontoxic, biodegradable and low emissions. This study concerns with production of methyl oleate-ester (biodiesel) using glyceryl trioleate and methanol with NaOH as a catalyst employing both traditional process and reactive distillation process. Aspen-Hysys v 8.0 is used for this simulation. The phase equilibrium was predicted by the Wilson thermodynamic model and the reactants are fed, methanol to olein oil (molar feed ratio = 6:1). Results reveal to that integrated design of (RD) ensures the removal of gylecrol byproduct that shifts the chemical equilibrium to completion. Thus RD process are more efficient than traditional process for biodiesel production due to less units and lower energy consumption.
