Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil refining, in particular to a kind of edible waste oil recovery process. BACKGROUND

[0002] Edible waste oil is a kind of oil mainly derived from waste oil, oil feet and fried residues generated in catering industry, food processing enterprises and household kitchens, which will cause environmental problems such as water pollution, soil destruction and pipe network blockage if not properly treated and directly discharged; If illegally recycled for feed or food production, it will seriously threaten food safety and public health. Therefore, standardizing the recycling and resource utilization of edible waste oil not only helps to reduce environmental load, but also is an important way to realize circular economy and produce renewable energy such as biodiesel.

[0003] At present, the recycling and reuse of edible waste oil is usually through ester exchange reaction to prepare biodiesel, in which homogeneous base catalysis is the most widely used traditional process, which has the advantages of high reaction efficiency, mild conditions and low cost. However, its inherent defects are also very prominent: homogeneous catalyst is difficult to separate and recover from the reaction system, and must be removed by acid-base neutralization and a large amount of water washing, which not only has complicated process, high energy consumption, but also produces high-concentration organic wastewater containing salt and soap, causing secondary pollution and increasing subsequent treatment cost, in addition, strong alkaline conditions can easily lead to saponification of free fatty acids in raw materials, reducing the yield of biodiesel and aggravating the emulsification phenomenon, further increasing the difficulty of product separation and purification.

[0004] In order to overcome the above problems, heterogeneous catalytic process is widely studied, such as using solid base or immobilized enzyme catalyst, which can be separated by filtration or centrifugation, to a certain extent, reducing the generation of wastewater. However, non-homogeneous catalysts generally have low accessibility of active sites, large mass transfer resistance and lower catalytic efficiency than homogeneous systems, which limits their industrial application potential. And heterogeneous catalysts face the problems of poor cycle stability, complex preparation process and high cost, therefore, the present application provides a kind of edible waste oil recovery process, which has solved the problems existing in the prior art.

[0012] Further, the strong magnet is specifically a neodymium magnet.

[0013] The present application has the following advantages: 1. The amino acid ionic liquid prepared from 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydroxide and alanine as raw materials in the biodiesel transesterification reaction, the anion of the ionic liquid as a Bronsted base can abstract the proton of methanol to generate active methoxy ions, and the cation of the ionic liquid as a phase transfer carrier carries the methoxy ions to the hydrophobic oil phase through electrostatic interaction, greatly promoting the mass transfer at the two-phase interface which is difficult to occur in the homogeneous reaction, thereby efficiently catalyzing the transesterification reaction to generate fatty acid methyl ester (biodiesel) and glycerol; after the reaction is completed, the amino acid ionic liquid can be separated from the reaction system by standing and layering or simple centrifugation due to its non-volatility and immiscibility with the product, thereby improving the content of the effective component (fatty acid methyl ester) in the biodiesel and reducing impurities; meanwhile, the amino acid ionic liquid is more environmentally friendly than traditional alkali catalysts and has the characteristics of being friendly to the environment.

[0014] 2. The magnetic temperature-controlled phase transfer catalyst is prepared by modifying poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) and trioctylamine on the silica shell layer and converting the quaternary ammonium salt group through iodomethane; the silica shell layer not only stabilizes the magnetic core but also provides abundant surface hydroxyl groups for chemical grafting; poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) is a temperature-sensitive polymer, and its chain segment makes its solubility have temperature responsiveness, so that intelligent phase behavior switching of low-temperature dispersion reaction and high-temperature aggregation separation can be realized; trioctylamine generates a structure containing a quaternary ammonium salt group after reaction with iodomethane, and the quaternary ammonium salt cation can act as the catalytic active center of the magnetic catalyst to catalyze the phase transfer of the aqueous phase and the organic phase in waste oil; at the same time, the poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) is grafted on the same silica shell layer together with the trioctylamine, so as to integrate the catalytic function and the intelligent response function, solve the contradiction of low efficiency of heterogeneous catalysts from the source, and improve the efficiency of the phase transfer catalytic reaction.

[0015] 3、The magnetic temperature-controlled phase transfer catalyst prepared in the application in the biodiesel preparation process, the catalyst uses the quaternary ammonium salt group to transfer the methoxy ion in the methanol reactant to the oil and fat phase, and only needs to simply raise the system temperature to above the minimum critical solution temperature, so that the catalyst with the magnetic ferroferric oxide core can be precipitated from the reaction medium due to the dehydration and curling of the polymer chain, and the instantaneous and complete solid-liquid separation can be realized by the external magnet adsorption, so that the catalyst is recycled and used, and the direct benefit brought by this mechanism is that the traditional process is completely abandoned, the purification process is greatly simplified, and the post-treatment cost is reduced. Meanwhile, the heterogeneous catalytic characteristics of the catalyst avoid the pollution of the catalyst to the reaction product, ensure the high purity of the biodiesel product, and the recyclability of the catalyst significantly reduces the material consumption and operating cost of the production process, so that the whole waste oil recovery process chain reduces the energy consumption and economic investment.

[0039] Table 2

[0040] Table 3

[0041] As can be seen from Table 1, the content of fatty acid methyl ester of Examples 1-3 is 97-98%; Comparative Example 1 only uses [Bmim][OH] to reduce to 84%; It is shown that the catalytic activity of the amino acid ionic liquid formed by attaching alanine to [Bmim][OH] is significantly higher than that of [Bmim][OH] alone, and the amino acid ionic liquid obtained by modification of alanine exhibits better catalytic performance.

[0042] As can be seen from Table 2, the yield of fatty acid methyl ester is 92-93% in Examples 1-3; the yield of fatty acid methyl ester is reduced to 76% in Comparative Example 3 without TEOS, without SiO2shell; the yield of fatty acid methyl ester is reduced to 62% in Comparative Example 4 without iodomethane, without quaternization of the tertiary amine of trioctylamine, which shows that the TEOS shell not only protects Fe3O4 but also provides graftable sites; and the quaternization of trioctylamine by iodomethane improves the phase transfer efficiency, and both are indispensable.
