The production of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) is an important intermediate step in oleochemistry. The oleochemical production route starts with the renewable raw materials fat and oil and ends at fatty alcohols and different special products. Fatty acid methyl esters can be formed at mild reaction temperatures by transesterification of natural triglycerides (fats and oils). This contribution will show the development of a continuous process which is considering the main principles of production integrated environmental protection. The main advantages of this process are low energy consumption and minimal waste production. The process alternatives are shown and a scope on future problems which have to be solved to reach a real additional improvement of the fatty acid methyl esters production is given.
脂肪酸甲酯(FAME)的生产是油脂化学中的一个重要中间步骤。油脂化学的生产路线始于可再生原料脂肪和油,止于脂肪醇和不同的特殊产品。脂肪酸甲酯可通过天然甘油三酯(脂肪和油)的酯交换反应在温和的反应温度下形成。本文将展示一种连续工艺的开发,该工艺考虑了生产一体化环境保护的主要原则。该工艺的主要优点是能耗低和废物产量最小。展示了工艺替代方案,并给出了为实现脂肪酸甲酯生产的真正进一步改进而必须解决的未来问题的范围。
