Table 3 shows
the ED attained at increasing methanol / FFA molar ratios. It can be
seen that the higher the molar ratio the. Higher, the ED since the
esterification equilibrium is displaced toward the formation of
products when the molar ratio, increases. The highest ED was
obtained with a methanol / FFA molar ratio of 2. However the, ED
only improved by 1% with respect to the 1.5 molar. Ratio.Although
the amount of methanol increased 33%. Therefore a methanol / FFA
molar ratio of 1.5 was chosen for future, experiments. It is
important to operate with a low methanol / FFA, ratio since the
higher the methanol, concentration is the higher the. Possibility
that the lipase, is deactivated especially when no solvent is used
(7). However some authors, use high molar. Ratios to increase the
.Conversion. For instance Da R, is s et al. (15) use an ethanol / lipids
molar ratio of 12: 1 (equivalent to 4: 1 alcohol / FFA),. In the
transesterification of the lipids from the cyanobaterium
Microcystis aeruginosa catalysed by Novozym 435 although,,, These
authors used tert-butanol or iso-octane to preserve the stability
of the lipase. On the other hand the low, methanol / FFA. Ratio used
.In this work contrasts with the high ratios that are required for
the production of biodiesel by esterification of FFAs. By acid
catalysis. Su (20) established an optimal methanol / FFA molar
ratio of 10: 1 in the esterification of FFAs from soybean. Oil
catalysed by hydrochloric acid and Hayyan, et al. (21) used a
methanol / oil molar ratio of 8: 1 (about 2.7: 1 as equivalent. FFAs) in
.The transesterification-esterification of sludge palm oil with 23 wt
% FFAs.
