Methods for utilization of the glycerine fraction, a rapeseed oil methanolysis by-product
The fraction contg. glycerine 29.45, volatiles 31.5% (incl. 12.4% H2O), alkalinity (pH 3.36) 0.707 and (pH 6.65) 0.462 meq/g, was neutralized with 0.71 val/L of 12N H2SO4 at 20degreesC. The resulting suspension was centrifuged (3 min, 3000 rpm) to remove KHSO4 + K2SO4, glycerine phase, and organic phase, 16, 59, and 25%. resp. The glycerine (43.7%) phase was concentrated to 82%, pH 8.52. From this, salts and colorants can be removed in 90%, as demonstrated on a 50% lye glycerine + 5% NaCl, by ion exclusion with a Na-form Amberiet-1200 to yield 100-150 kg glycerine/h per 1 m(3) resin. Subsequent ion exchange in the strong cation-weak anion exchange resin system, adsorption on active C, and vacuum concentrated would yield a CA-grade glycerine. Possible utilizations of salt sediment, fatty acids and glycerin fraction were suggested.
