Description

A kind of preparation method of bio-diesel oil
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of bio-diesel oil.
Background technology
Biofuel can be carried out transesterification reaction through grease and single hydroxyl alcohol and made.Transesterification reaction refers to triglyceride level and single hydroxyl alcohol (generally is a low-carbon alcohol, like C 1-C 8Monohydroxy-alcohol) reaction carried out.In its reaction product fatty ester is arranged, promptly biofuel, mono-glycerides, two sweet esters, glycerine, pure and mild triglyceride level are raw material.Its preparation method can be divided into acid catalyzed process, base catalysis method, supercritical methanol technology etc.
CN1412278A discloses a kind of acid catalyzed process, with the method for preparing biological diesel oil from high acid value waste animal and plant oil, it with sulfuric acid as catalyzer; Operation according to raw material dehydration, esterification and transesterify, phase-splitting, decolouring is carried out, and raw material dewaters under the vacuum earlier at 60~100 ℃; Then, under 40~85 ℃, sulfuric acid add-on 2~6%; Carried out esterification and transesterification reaction 6 hours, and told the fatty acid methyl ester phase, with atlapulgite 90~125 ℃ of decolourings get final product biofuel.
It is raw material that CN1473907A adopts the tankage of vegetable oil refining and edible refiltered oil; Catalyzer is inorganic and organic acid is composite forms by sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, tosic acid, Witco 1298 Soft Acid, naphthene sulfonic acid etc.; Produce through operations such as acidifying removal of impurities, continous vacuum dehydration, esterification, layering, underpressure distillation, the vacuum tightness-0.08 of continous vacuum dehydration~-0.09Mpa, 60~95 ℃ of temperature; Dewater to water-content below 0.2%; Esterif iotacation step catalyzer add-on 1~3%, 60~80 ℃ of esterification temperatures, 6 hours reaction times.Reaction after product neutralization is earlier removed catalyzer, and then, layering removes and anhydrates, and the after product that anhydrates obtains biofuel through underpressure distillation.
Acid catalysis existing problems speed of response is slow more than base catalysis, in addition, has a large amount of spent acid, waste water generation.
In the natural fats and oils, contain free fatty acids usually, under the more situation of free fatty acids, as directly using the base catalysis method; Use base metal catalysts, can produce fatty acid soaps, base metal catalysts is wanted excessive and the fatty ester layer is separated with glycerin layer to become difficulty like this; For avoiding these problems, DE3444893 discloses a kind of method, at first; Oil plant is carried out preparatory esterification treatment,, free fatty acids and alcohol are carried out esterification with acid catalyst, normal pressure, 50~120 ℃; Add the acid catalyst that the preparatory esterification of neutralization earlier of excessive base metal catalysts is left over then, carry out transesterification reaction again, the requirement of base metal catalysts has bigger increase.Adopt that the pre-esterifying process existing problems are that technical process is long, step is many, facility investment, energy consumption significantly rise, and in addition, needs from reaction process and product, remove acid, basic catalyst, need can produce great amount of wastewater with a large amount of washing water.By-product glycerin concentration is low, reclaims difficulty.
PCT/JP99/0543 discloses the method for a kind of grease and monohydroxy-alcohol prepared in reaction fatty ester; At 270~280 ℃, under 11~12MPa, methyl alcohol is reacted with oil plant; The fatty acid methyl ester production rate is 55~60%, the separation scheme of the not open reaction of this patent back crude product.
