Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a process for forming a fatty acid, a fatty acid ester or a mixture thereof from a starting material comprising soap, as well as use of the formed mixture.
  • Fig. 1 depicts the main execution steps of the process according the invention.
  • the fatty acid can be used as such or a fatty acid ester, suitable for biodiesel, can be formed therefrom using a monohydric short-chained alcohol by treating the fatty acid with said alcohol.
  • a monohydric short-chained alcohol by treating the fatty acid with said alcohol.
  • the acid treatment and the esterification are carried out as an acid catalyzed esterification or by gradually esterifying.
  • an HCl-methanol treatment is performed on the soap precipitate at a temperature exceeding the boiling point of methanol, more preferably at over 65°C, most suitably at 80°C.
  • the second phase i.e. the organic phase
  • the phase containing the salt formed in the esterification into the starting material.
  • the aqueous solution containing mineral salts released in the esterification can be recycled to the step of mineral salt treatment of the soap.
  • Both the fatty acids and the fatty acid esters formed in the invention can be utilized for the manufacturing of biofuels. They can be used as such or they can be blended with other components, or the acid or ester structures can be degraded using methods known in the art and the double bonds can be saturated, whereby an n-paraffin product is obtained, which on the other hand can be mixed into the other components.
  • Example 1 The manufacturing of fatty acid esters
