Ionic Liquid‐Enhanced Solvent‐Based Fractional Crystallization for Separation of Fatty Acids From Tallow fat—A Modelling Approach

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In industrial practice, fats and oils that contain triglycerides when subjected to high‐temperature and high‐pressure aqueous hydrolysis, yield sweet water as the bottom product and fatty acid mixtures as the top product in a separating column.

Ultrafast Biodiesel Synthesis via K2CO3‐Supported Mg‐Al Hydrotalcite Catalyst With Tailored Basicity and Mesoporous Structure

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increasing global energy demand and the growing prominence of environmental issues, biodiesel has garnered significant attention as a renewable, low‐emission green energy source. Conventional hydrotalcite‐based catalysts often suffer from insufficient basicity and limited accessibility of active sites, leading to relatively long ...

Production of biodiesel by enzymatic transesterification of non-edible Salvadora persica (Pilu) oil and crude coconut oil in a solvent-free system

Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2019
Background It is becoming imperative to develop renewable fuels such as biodiesel which are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Exploiting non-edible oils is more necessary to reduce dependency of edible oils for biodiesel production.

Environmentally Friendly Nanofiber Cellulose From Durian Rinds: A Sustainable Alternative Biomass Resource

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A novel, efficient, and eco‐friendly sustainable process has been developed for the extraction of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) from durian rinds. The method utilizes low‐molecular‐weight 2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl (TEMPO) as an oxidation agent, in conjunction with sonication treatment, resulting in a significant reduction of processing

Ensiling and Fermentation of Rice Hulls With Ruminal Fluid for Medium‐Chain Carboxylate Production

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large quantities of rice hulls are common at milling sites in Nigeria. They are a by‐product of rice processing and can contribute to environmental degradation if not properly managed. In this study, rice hulls were pretreated by ensiling at ambient temperature and then used as substrate for medium‐chain carboxylates (MCCs) production ...
