Embodiment 1

[0029] Centrifuge at 4000rpm for 10min to collect cells at a density of 10 7 1 / mL Phaeodactylum tricornutum algae liquid 100 mL, after removing the supernatant to obtain about 0.1 g of microalgae wet biomass, its water content was determined to be 88%, add 0.5 mL of n-hexane and 1 mL of mass fraction to the centrifuge tube 2% methanol solution of sodium hydroxide, transferred to a sealed test tube, heated to 80°C, kept at a constant temperature for 20 minutes, cooled to room temperature for 5 minutes after the reaction, then added 1 mL of 10% acetyl chloride methanol solution, heated to 80 ℃, keep the temperature for 20 minutes, cool to room temperature for 5 minutes after the reaction, add 0.5mL of n-hexane and 1mL of potassium carbonate solution with a mass fraction of 6%, oscillate and stand still, and transfer all the upper liquid to a rotary evaporator after stratification occurs. Heat to 68°C, distill the n-hexane, and the remaining liquid is fatty acid methyl ester. Acc...

Embodiment 3

[0033] In this embodiment, glyceryl heptadecanoate is used as the test sample. Most of the fatty acids in microalgae exist in the form of triacylglycerides, and glyceryl heptadecanoate is one of them. Therefore, by measuring glyceryl heptadecanoate The conversion rate that ester is converted into methyl heptadecanoate can further prove the accuracy of the present invention. Take 0.5 mL of glyceryl heptadecanoate in toluene (containing 0.1 mg of glyceryl heptadecanoate, equivalent to about 0.1 mg of methyl heptadecanoate) in a test tube, add 0.5 mL of n-hexane and 1 mL of mass Sodium hydroxide methanol solution with a fraction of 2%, heat to 80°C after sealing, keep the temperature for 20min, cool to room temperature for 5min after the reaction, then add 1mL acetyl chloride methanol solution with a mass fraction of 10%, heat to 80°C, keep the temperature for 20min After the reaction, cool down to room temperature for 5 minutes, add 0.5 mL of methyl nonadecanoate n-hexane soluti...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting fatty acid methyl ester from microalgae wet biomass by acid-alkali combined transesterification and belongs to the field of biochemical engineering. The method comprises carrying out combined catalysis on microalgae wet biomass with water content of 90% or less according to a reasonable ratio of an alkali catalyst to an acidic catalyst to obtain fatty acid methyl ester crude extract, and extracting fatty acid methyl ester from the microalgae wet biomass by a distillation method. Concretely, the method comprises 1, microalgae wet biomass collection, 2, base catalysis, 3, acid catalysis, 4, neutralization reaction and 5, distillation. The method has a scientific design and reasonable processes, prevents adhesion to the wall in microalgae transfer thereby preventing sample loss, realizes normal pressure and low temperature reaction in one reactor without wall pre-breaking and special mechanical equipment and has a fatty acid methyl ester yield of 95% or more.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biochemical industry, in particular to a method for directly extracting fatty acid methyl ester from wet biomass of microalgae. Background technique [0002] Microalgae are rich in oil and fatty acid components. They are not only an important source of n-3 high unsaturated fatty acids (DHA and EPA, etc.), but also can be extracted from biodiesel (the main component is fatty acid methyl or ethyl ester) to supplement increasingly tense petrochemical energy. However, the biomass of microalgae is usually accompanied by a large amount of water. The density of open culture is generally lower than 1 g / L, and the closed high-density culture can only reach 30 g / L, resulting in extremely high harvesting and dehydration costs, accounting for its production cost ( Including cultivation and harvesting) 20% to 30%. There are many kinds of microalgae, and the composition of the cell wall is complex, mainly including c...
