Comparison of Chemical and Enzymatic Methods for the Transesterification of Waste Fish Oil Fatty Ethyl Esters with Different Alcohols.

ABSTRACT: Fatty acid esters of 2-ethyl-1-hexanol (EH), 2-hexyl-1-decanol (HD), and isopropanol have been obtained from a mixture of ethyl esters obtained as a fish oil byproduct. Homogeneous base catalysis with alkaline hydroxides and alkoxides has been compared with the use of two commercially available immobilized lipases. The enzymatic methodology is more efficient in the case of the largest alcohol (HD) mainly because of the high stability of the immobilized enzymes upon recovery and reuse. In contrast, the use of a base as a catalyst is highly favorable in the case of isopropanol because of the rather poor activity of the lipases and the low price of the bases. With EH, the activity of lipases is good but the recoverability is not as efficient; hence, basic catalysts are again the most attractive alternative. The mixtures of esters obtained may be useful as hydraulic liquids given their viscosity values.

Project description:The data employed the blend of waste used oil and beef tallow for the synthesis of fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE) via ethanolysis of developed catalyst from calcined fermented cocoa pod husk powder (CFCPHP) doped with burnt cocoa pod husk powder (BCHP). Characterization of the developed doped catalyst (DDC) was carried out using FTIR, SEM, XRD, and BET adsorption analysis, while the basic strength of the DDC was tested through reusability test data. Mathematical optimization of the process condition was carried out through Box-Behnken Experimental Design (BBED) in 29 runs with variations in four variables as catalyst concentration (1.5 to 3.5 wt.%), reaction time (60 to 100 min), ethanol/oil molar ratio (EtOH/OMR) of 3 to 7, and reaction temperature (60 to 80 °C). The FAEE quality was ascertained by determining its fuel properties. The data showed that the binary blend ratio of 42:58 of Waste Used oil: Beef Tallow oil (WUO: BTO) was obtained through API gravity ratio formulation. The developed doped catalyst (DDC) produced a high CaO-base of 84.30 (wt.%), with a high total basic site of 210 μmole.g-1 via BET and XRD analysis. The SEM analysis dataset showed non-uniform sizes, highly porous and crystalline sample, while the dataset on FTIR analysis data confirmed the presence of wagging and twisting CO3 2-, the bending vibration of O-Ca-O, the sp2 of C = O, C = C, the sp of C  ≡  C and C  ≡  N, the bending structure of O-H, and the O=O, N ≡ O of Amines, and Amides. Based on the experiment, the maximum experimental yield of 97.80 (%wt.) at runs 7, and low yield of 89.50 (%wt.) at run 17 was obtained for FAEE. Mathematical optimization in 10 solutions predicted the FAEE yield of 97.7999 (%wt.) at the catalyst concentration of 3.10 (wt.%), the reaction time of 68.09 min, the EtOH/OMR of 3.01, and the reaction temperature of 72.21 °C. This data was validated in replicate, and the average mean value of FAEE was 97.68 (%wt.). Dataset on ANOVA and parametric analysis showed that the variable factors considered were significant at p-value <0.0001, with high R2 of 99.14%, R2-predicted of 98.32%, R2-adjusted of 98.28%, and adequate precision of 51.152, respectively. Catalyst reusability test data showed that the cycle number was stopped at the 5th cycle due to the decrease in catalyst basic strength. The produced FAEE dataset was within the recommended standard, and the data showed the developed doped catalyst successfully converted binary blend oil to FAEE, and the fermentation process increased the CaO-based conversion of DDC.
