Definitions
- Biodiesel may be made from natural, renewable sources such as new or used vegetable oils and animal fats. Biodiesel is fatty acid alkyl esters (typically being C ⁇ 6 to C ⁇ 8 ) and can generally be burned in combustion-ignition engines as a direct replacement for petroleum-based diesel. Aside from providing the benefit that biodiesel may be generated from renewable sources, biodiesel also provides the added benefit of decreased emissions from its combustion as compared to the combustion of petroleum-based diesel.
- Alkylesters in particular biodiesel, may be derived from the oils of the soybean or the rapeseed.
- the crude vegetable oil from these sources may be filtered, refined and subjected to several processing steps before the oil may be usable as biodiesel.
- biodiesel may be derived from varying grades of vegetable oils. Such grades include virgin oil, yellow grease, used oils from food processing, or by-products from the edible oil refining process such as soap stock.
- Each of these sources has varying amounts of free fatty acids and/or glycerides ⁇ i.e., mono-, di-, or tri-glycerides ⁇ that may be processed into biodiesel.
- soap stock is generally considered the most cost effective source.
- Soap stock is derived from the crude oil extracted from the soybean or rapeseed. The crude oil of these seeds may be separated into two components: refined oil (which may then be further processed and converted into edible oil) and soap stock. The soap stock may then be acidulated with sulfuric acid to provide a composition having about 70% free fatty acids that may be further processed into biodiesel.
- One contemplated method of processing the free fatty acids from these various grades of vegetable oils is the direct transesterification of the free fatty acids in the presence of alkali to produce the fatty acid alkyl esters for use as biodiesel. Such an approach, however, causes the free fatty acids to precipitate as soap, creating an additional recovery step in the contemplated method.
- each R may be the same or different and an aliphatic chain typically found in vegetable or animal oil sources, typically C ⁇ to C 22 .
- alkylalcohol e.g. methanol
- the method of the present invention is generally described below where the glycerides originally present in the oil source are represented by the triglyceride, however, it is understood that the glycerides originally present in the oil source may be mono-, di-, and/or triglyicerides.
- each R may be the same or different and an aliphatic chain typically found in vegetable or animal oil sources, typically C 8 to C 22 .
- Figure 1 shows a reaction setup that may be used for performing the method of present invention.
- Figure 2 shows the acid values as a function of time for three examples of the present invention.
- the method of the present invention of processing a vegetable or animal oil source can be represented by the following reaction scheme where the glycerides originally present in the oil source are represented by the triglyceride, however, it is understood that the glycerides originally present in the oil source may be mono-, di-, and/or triglyicerides.
- each R may be the same or different and may be an aliphatic chain typically found in vegetable or animal oil sources, typically C 8 to C 22 .
- the reaction may be typically conducted in a small-scale batch system as shown in Figure 1 or more typically in a scaled-up version of the system shown in Figure 1 for commercial applications.
- the system 8 of Figure 1 includes a IL resin reactor 10.
- the reactor 10 was equipped with a Teflon turbine agitator 12, thermocouple 14 with an associated temperature controller 16 and heating mantle 17, nitrogen sparge tube 18 with an associated nitrogen gas source 20, and a packed reflux column 22 (30 cm height and 2,5 cm diameter) attached to a Dean Stark trap 24 with condenser 26.
- a vacuum line 28 was attached to the top of the condenser 26 which was connected to the vacuum pump 30 via an in-line ice trap 32.
- the vacuum was controlled with a solenoid 34.
- a bubbler 36 may also be used.
- the first step of the reaction in which the free fatty acids are converted into glycerides may be performed at a temperature between about 140°C to about 245°C, more preferably between about 160°C to about 200°C, and most preferably at about 180°C.
- the first step may further be performed at a reduced pressure ranging from about 760 mmHg to about 1 mmHg, under a constant stream of nitrogen, or a combination of both reduced pressure and under a constant stream of nitrogen.
- the present invention has been found to be particularly effective when using crude glycerin derived from the methanolysis of vegetable oils or other fats (or recovered from a fat splitting process).
- Crude glycerin as generated from the methanolysis process contains approximately 80 - 85% glycerin, 13 - 18% methanol, about 1 - 2% water, small amounts of mono-, and diglycerides, as well as residual alkali.
- the method of the present invention is applicable to USP grade glycerin or purified glycerin as well.
- the glycerin source may be used in a concentration of at least 0.3 equivalent.
- the resulting mixture of glycerides is then subjected to a base catalyzed methanolysis, forming methyl esters and glycerin as a by-product.
- the glycerin generated in this second step of the process can be recycled for use in the first step to form glycerides with the free fatty acids contained in acidulated soap stock or other oil source. In this latter case, no further purification of the recycled glycerin is necessary.
- the reaction scheme in particular the first step of the reaction scheme, may be performed with a catalyst.
- Contemplated catalysts include but are not limited to organotin compounds (e.g., dibutyltin oxide), organo titanium compounds (e.g., tetrabutyl titanate), alkali acetates, earthalkali acetates, Lewis acids, alkali carbonates, earthalkali carbonates, and combinations thereof.
- Table 1 sets forth the reaction parameters and measured acid values of Example 1 demonstrating the progress of the conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock sample into glycerides.
- this example shows that by using the crude glycerin, the duration of vacuum application in combination with nitrogen sparging may be considerably shorter, and that the overall reaction time to reach a comparable acid value was significantly reduced (880 min vs. 615 min), as compared with Example 1.
- Table 2 sets forth the reaction parameters and measured acid values of Example 2 demonstrating the progress of the conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock sample into glycerides.
- Example 3 demonstrates that by utilizing the combination of vacuum and nitrogen sparge earlier in the process, cycle time can be reduced further, without negatively affecting the final product, e.g., by removing raw material from the reactor resulting in decreased yields.
- 528.5 g of acidulated soap stock were combined with 124.4 g of crude glycerin and processed as under example 1 - 2.
- the pH of the reaction mixture immediately after combing the raw materials was measured to 5.04.
- the total weight of distillate was measured to 54.77 g and the isolated yield of glycerides was 589.68 g (90.3% based on total mass input).
- Table 3 sets forth the reaction parameters and measured acid values of Example 3 demonstrating the progress of the conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock sample into glycerides.
- Figure 2 compares the rate of conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock for Examples 1, 2, and 3 and demonstrates that the conditions of Example 3 provide the most accelerated conversion.
- Example 4 demonstrates the effect of a reduced glycerin charge.
- the amount of 520.2 g of acidulated soap stock and 91.8 g of crude glycerin (15 wt% effective glycerin) were charged into a IL resin kettle 10 (Fig. 1) and treated as in the previous examples.
- a IL resin kettle 10 Fig. 1
- the total amount of distillate recovered was 53.5g and the glyceride yield was 548.71 g.
- Table 4 sets forth the reaction parameters and measured acid values of Example 4 demonstrating the progress of the conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock sample into glycerides.
- Example 5 is analogous to Example 4, but without the pH adjustment.
- the pH of the combined glycerin and soap stock was 5.03.
- the nitrogen sparge for the last hour was increased from 30 mL/hr to 60mL/hr.
- the final amount of distillate collected was 55.25g and 552.73 g of glycerides were recovered.
- Table 5 sets forth the reaction parameters and measured acid values of Example 5 demonstrating the progress of the conversion of the free fatty acids of the soap stock sample into glycerides. TABLE 5 - Reaction parameters for Example 5.
- Example 6 is a comparative reaction which highlights the fact that the glycerolysis can be carried out with a variety of raw material streams such as yellow grease and acidulated glycerin (recycled glycerin from soy oil methanolysis but without alkali or methanol), and can be subjected to a conventional esterification catalysis.
- 498.1 g yellow grease and 50.0 g acidulated glycerin were charged together with 1.0 g of Dibutyltinoxide into a IL resin kettle 10 (Fig. 1) and heated to a reaction temperature of 200°C. When the reaction temperature reached 200°C, a vacuum of 250 mmHg was applied.

- the reaction mixture was cooled to an appropriate temperature to safely add 116 g of methanol and 7.5 g of a 25% solution of sodium methoxide in methanol.
- the reactor was then heated to 77°C for 2 hours while agitating. Heating was discontinued and the mixture was allowed to settle. A total of 147.43 g of glycerin containing phase was removed from the bottom of the mixture. The remaining material was stripped at 60°C to remove excess methanol.
- the reaction mixture was heated to temperature and vacuum and nitrogen was applied as in the previous examples, as reported in Table 6.
- the final acid value was 0.21, with 72.56 g distillate collected, and a glyceride yield of approximately 758.76 g (accounting for sampling during the reaction).
- 120 g of methanol and 5.7 g of sodium methoxide solution (25% in methanol) was added, and the reactor was heated to 65 - 68°C for 1.25 hours, after which the reaction mixture was allowed to settle for 1.25 hours.

The aqueous phase was removed from the bottom of the reactor.
- the reactor was then evacuated to remove residual water resulting in a crude methyl ester product.
- the crude methyl ester was then subjected to vacumn distillation yielding approximately 1,429 lbs of nearly colorless distilled ester.
