Some Problems of the Preparation of Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Using Boron Trifluoride-Methanol Reagent

Preparation of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters and Dimethylacetals from Lipids with Boron Fluoride--methanol.

Fatty acid methyl esters and dimethylacetals suitable for gas chromatographic analysis were prepared by treatment of lipids with boron fluoride-methanol (140 g BFI per liter of methanol). This reagent is stable and easy to handle. Reaction conditions were investigated for triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, free fatty acids, sterol esters, phosphatidyl ethanolamines, phosphatidyl serin...

Vapor-liquid equilibria for methanol + fatty acid methyl ester binary systems near critical temperature of methanol

In biodiesel production processes using supercritical methanol, the phase equilibria for methanol + fatty acid methyl ester systems near the critical temperature of methanol (Tc = 512.6 K) are required as the fundamental data. A flow type method was applied to measure the vapor-liquid equilibria for methanol + fatty acid methyl ester binary systems at 493 – 543 K. The phase behavior was studied...

assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...

the use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
