Original article : The Mixing Effect of Methanol and Ethanol in Lard and Soybean Oil Based Biodiesel Production

Seung Bum Lee

Abstract

The fuel properties of biodiesel produced by changing the mixing ratio of methanol and ethanol in trans-esterification of soybean oil and lard were evaluated in this paper. The solubility of oil and fat in ethanol was higher than that in methanol. Also the more homogeneous biodiesel was produced as increasing the mole ratio of ethanol. The conversion characteristics of lard was the best at the mixing mole ratio of methanol and ethanol was 6 : 6 at the reaction temperature of 60 ℃. On the other hands, the best biodiesel conversion characteristics for soybean oil was obtained at the mixing mole ratio of 3 :3. The kinematic viscosities of soybean oil and lard based biodiesel were 4.17∼4.35 cSt and 4.69∼4.93 cSt, respectively. The oxidation stability and higher heating value increased with increasing the mole ratio of ethanol. The oxidation stability satisfied the criteria of biodiesel quality of 6 hours. And finally, the higher heating value was approximately 40 MJ/kg.

초록

대두유와 돈지를 이용한 에스테르교환반응실험에서 메탄올과 에탄올의 혼합비율을 조절하여 제조된 바이오디젤의 연료특성을 평가하였다. 메탄올보다는 에탄올에 대한 유지의 용해도가 높았으며 에탄올의 몰비가 증가함에 따라 균질한 바이오디젤 제조가 가능함을 확인하였다. 반응온도 60 ℃에서 메탄올과 에탄올의 혼합몰비가 6: 6일 때 돈지의 경우 가장 우수한 바이오디젤 전환특성을 나타내었다. 또한 대두유의 경우 3: 3일 때 가장 우수한 바이오디젤 전환특성을 나타내었다. 대두유와 돈지를 원료로 하여 제조된 바이오디젤의 동점도는 40℃에서 각각 4.17∼4.35 cSt, 4.69∼4.93 cSt로 측정되었으며, 에탄올의 첨가비가 증가함에 따라 산화안정성과 고위발열량은 증가하였다. 산화안정성은 바이오디젤의 품질기준인 6 h 이상을 만족하였고, 고위발열량은 약 40 MJ/kg으로 나타났다.
