This project develops a continuous process for producing biodiesel from waste cooking oil using supercritical carbon dioxide. It employs enzymatic reactions for greater efficiency and environmental sustainability, addressing issues in traditional biodiesel production methods.
The main objective of the present proposal is the development of a complete continuous reaction/separation process for the production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil (mainly from sunflower oil origin, which accounts for most of the edible oils consumed in Portugal) in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2).
The production of biodiesel will be done via an enzymatic reaction which is more selective, avoids the need to neutralize the reaction mixture, and is more amenable to recycling than chemic…
