MAR 2006 RECEIVED 100766935_1 .DOC: JC:qwgtn (followed by page 1a) O.Z. 6496 1 a Method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel The invention relates to a method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel.
An alternative to conventional diesel fuel which is being used to an increasing extent today is biodiesel, which comprises monoalkyl esters of vegetable oils, animal fats and also used cooking fats. Biodiesel is obtained by transesterification of oils, for example rapeseed oil, soybean oil or sunflower oil and also used cooking oils, with an alcohol in the presence of a catalyst.
Since the importance of biodiesel as an alternative diesel fuel for passenger cars has been continually increasing in importance in recent times, the production of biodiesel has also increased to a corresponding extent in recent years. Biodiesel has a high content of unsaturated fatty acid esters which can easily be oxidized by atmospheric oxygen. The products formed (including acids, resins) can lead to corrosion and blockages in injection pumps and/or fuel lines. The increasing use of the alternative biodiesel as automobile fuel has led to a need for oxidation-stabilized biodiesel. According to the prior art, preference is given to adding 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT) as primary antioxidant to the biodiesel in order to meet the oxidation stability requirements of the standard DIN EN 14214.
The use of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol as antioxidant is described in the European patent EP 0 189 049. Here, the use of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol in amounts of from 10 to 100 ppm as exclusive stabilizer in methyl esters of palm kernel oil having from 12 to 18 carbon atoms in the fatty acid is described.
DE 102 52 714 and WO 2004/044104, too, describe a method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel by addition of di-2,6-tert-butyl-4-hydroxytoluene. A liquid stock solution containing from 15 to 60% by weight of monoalkylhydroxytoluene or dialkylhydroxytoluene dissolved in biodiesel is added to the biodiesel to be stabilized to give a concentration of 0.005 to 2% by weight of monoalkylhydroxytoluene or dialkylhydroxytoluene, based on the total solution in biodiesel.
O.Z. 6496 2 DE 102 52 715 describes a method of increasing the storage stability of biodiesel, in which a liquid stock solution containing from 15 to 60% by weight of 2,4-di-tert-butylhydroxytoluene dissolved in biodiesel is added to the biodiesel to be stabilized to give a concentration of from 0.005 to 2% by weight of 2,4-di-tert-butylhydroxytoluene, based on the total solution in 5 biodiesel.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel, or to at least provide a useful alternative. In particular, it is an object of the invention to improve the processability of the primary antioxidant in biodiesel and thus improve the economics or the use of primary antioxidants in biodiesel, or to at least provide a useful alternative.
It has surprisingly been found that the addition of a liquid primary antioxidant based on substituted alkylphenols having the structure I to biodiesel makes it possible to improve the handleability of the primary antioxidants in biodiesel. The primary antioxidant used in the 15 method of the invention has a low melting point, i.e. a melting point of less than or equal to 40°C. Owing to its low melting point, this primaiy antioxidant can, in the method of the invention, be mixed as liquid directly into the biodiesel without this primary antioxidant firstly having to be dissolved in a solvent, for example alcohol, or in biodiesel. Thus, the preparation of a masterbatch of this primary antioxidant in biodiesel can be dispensed with. The 20 masterbatches are generally prepared using the biodiesel for which the masterbatch is ready to be used. In the case of large distances between biodiesel and antioxidant manufacturers in particular, this leads to high costs for storage and transport in the case of primary antioxidants according to the prior art. The primary antioxidant used in the method of the invention thus leads to low production costs for the oxidation-stabilized biodiesel, since, firstly, the 25 preparation of solutions or masterbatches comprising the active ingredient primary antioxidant can be dispensed with and, secondly, the present method shows that a product mixture from the manufacturing process of substituted alkylphenols can be used without complicated separation and purification steps. A further advantage of the method of the invention is that the production of the oxidation-stabilized biodiesel can be carried out at low temperatures and within a 30 relatively short time. The method of the invention thus makes it possible to improve the economics of the production of oxidation-stabilized biodiesel. The active content of the liquid primary antioxidant used according to the present invention is 100% compared to 20% of the liquid primaiy antioxidants according to the prior art, since the liquid generally contains only O.Z. 6496 3 about 20% by weight of the active ingredient antioxidant The use of a liquid primary antioxidant according to the method of the invention likewise enables transport and storage costs to be saved as a result of the high active content of primary antioxidant per liter. The use of a liquid primary antioxidant according to the method of the invention also leads to reduced crystallization of the primary antioxidant in the biodiesel or in plant components at low temperatures.
The present invention provides a method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel, which comprises adding a primary antioxidant having a melting point of less than or equal to 40°C to the biodiesel to be stabilized in an amount of from 10 to 20 000 ppm (w/w), where the primary antioxidant comprises at least one compound having the structure Ri, R2 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms or *, where * is a carbon atom of the aromatic ring system, R3, R5 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R4 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, where both the substituents of the type Rj and R2 and those of the type R3 and R5 are in each case identical or different. oh where: The invention further provides for the use of a primary antioxidant which has a melting point of less than or equal to 40°C and comprises at least one compound having the structure O.Z. 6496 4 oh R4 R where: Ri, R2 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms or *, where * is a carbon atom of the aromatic ring system, R3, R5 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R4 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, where both the substituents of the type Ri and R2 and those of the type R3 and R5 are in each case identical or different, for increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel.
The invention likewise provides an oxidation-stabilized biodiesel comprising from 10 to 20 000 ppm (w/w) of a primary antioxidant which has a melting point of less than or equal to 40°C and comprises at least one compound having the structure Ri, R2 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms or R OH where: *, where * is a caibon atom of the aromatic ring system, R3, Rs = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R4 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, O.Z. 6496 where both the substituents of the type Ri and R2 and those of the type R3 and R5 are in each case identical or different.
The inventive method of increasing the oxidation stability of biodiesel comprises adding a primary antioxidant having a melting point or less than or equal to 40°C to the biodiesel to be stabilized in an amount of from 10 to 20 000 ppm (w/w), where the primary antioxidant comprises at least one compound having the structure Ri, R2 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms or *, whore * is a carbon atom of the aromatic ring system, R3, R5 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R4 = hydrogen, a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, where both the substituents of the type Ri and R2 and those of the type R3 and R5 are in each case identical or different.
For the purposes of the present invention, primary antioxidants are compounds or mixtures of compounds which inhibit or prevent undesirable degradation reactions in the biodiesel caused by oxygen. The mode of action of these primary antioxidants in the biodiesel is described in the following reaction scheme, where R and R' are each an organic radical and AOH is a primary antioxidant used in the method of the invention. oh where: 1.

Chain termination R02- + AOH ROOH + AO' AO ' + R" -a- AOR Apart from the abovementioned reactions, it is also possible for reactions on the double bonds of the alkyl esters of fatty acids, which can likewise be initiated by oxygen, to occur. Here, the caibon-hydrogen bond which is located in the allyl position relative to the double bond is 10 preferentially attacked by the oxygen: The primaiy antioxidant used in the method of the invention comprises neither organic solvents, for example alcohols, nor biodiesel, as is the case, for example, when a masterbatch is 15 employed.
