Problems solved by technology

[0005] Lei Zhanlan (Development and application of fractionation of methyl palmitate, a by-product of tallow biodiesel [D]. Nanchang University, 2007.) Static crystallization and separation of saturated fatty acid methyl ester in tallow biodiesel in methanol or ethanol solvent, in When the mass ratio of biodiesel:ethanol is 1:2, a single crystallization can obtain a saturated fatty acid methyl ester product with a content of 91.4%, but this method requires a large amount of solvent and the purity of the product needs to be improved
[0006] CN 101747185 A puts biodiesel in a large amount of ethanol solvent to stand and crystallize, then washes the filter cake with mixed solvent for many times, can obtain high-purity saturated fatty acid methyl ester, but The method is complex in operation and requires a large amount of solvent
[0007] In summary, the existing technology uses a large amount of solvent, the energy consumption of crystallization and solvent recovery is high, and the purity of saturated fatty acid monoalkyl esters also needs to be improved, so it is urgent to develop low Low-cost, high-purity production method of saturated fatty acid monoalkyl ester

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating saturated fatty acid monoalkyl ester from mixed fatty acid monoalkyl ester. The method comprises the following steps: dissolving mixed fatty acid monoalkyl ester in a solvent, cooling to a certain temperature under a stirring condition, maintaining for a period of time, cooling to a certain temperature, maintaining for a certain time, filtering, andrecovering the solvent in the filtered solid to obtain a saturated fatty acid monoalkyl ester product. The method has the advantages of low solvent consumption, high saturated fatty acid monoalkyl ester content and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for separating and producing saturated fatty acid monoalkyl esters from mixed fatty acid monoalkyl esters. Background technique [0002] Fatty acid monoalkyl ester refers to a fatty acid ester compound formed by combining one fatty acid group and one ester group. When the fatty acid group is derived from natural oils such as animal and vegetable oils and microbial oils, the carbon chain length is C8-C24; the ester group of C1-C4 is derived from monohydric alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol. The most common C8-C24 monoalkyl ester is fatty acid methyl ester, that is, biodiesel. [0003] Saturated fatty acid monoalkyl esters can produce a variety of oleochemicals, such as methyl chloride, butyl stearate, glyceryl stearate, stearate, etc. Fatty acid monoalkyl esters produced from natural oils are a mixture of saturated fatty acid esters and unsaturated fatty acid esters. The content of saturated fatty acid esters is ...
