Abstract:Pathways of formation of low-boiling products in the course of oxidation of fatty acid methyl esters with atmospheric oxygen in a bubbling column were studied. These products are continuously removed from the reactor under the action of high temperature at continuous air supply. Two kinds of feedstock with different content of esters of mono- and diunsaturated fatty acids (methyl esters of fatty acids of olive and sunflower oils) were used in the study. Along with acids and aldehydes forming the major fraction… Show more
