Biolubricant Production through Double Transesterification: Reactor Design for the Implementation of a Biorefinery Based on Rapeseed

The production and use of biolubricants as replacements for mineral lubricants align with the promotion sustainable development goals, contributing to economic growth developing countries well preservation environment. implementation biorefineries (where through transesterification could play an important role) is becoming these purposes, using natural feedstocks such rapeseed, which interesting crop that can adapt different climates under extreme weather conditions. aim this research work was study design a reactor produce rapeseed biolubricant double corresponding vegetable oil. Thus, kinetics studied, sizing it according properties demand in Spain. As result, SAE 10W30 obtained, suitable Diesel engines. A batch selected at national level, pseudo-first reaction order volume 9.66 m3.
