| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, the production of biodiesel fuel from animal and vegetable oils has been increasing because of the environmental and energy problems. Glycerol, which is a by-product of biodiesel fuel formation, has been expected to be used as a reactant for useful material. In this study, the effective conversion of glycerol to useful esters using reaction chromatography was investigated. The basic behaviors of esterification and transesterification of glycerol with lactic acid and ethyl lactate using column-type chromatographic reactor system were analyzed. The reaction system was successfully expanded to the continuous system using a simulated moving bed reactor.
