One‐Phase Ionic Liquid Reaction Medium for Biocatalytic Production of Biodiesel

One‐Phase Ionic Liquid Reaction Medium for Biocatalytic Production of Biodiesel A highly efficient biocatalytic process for biodiesel synthesis in 1‐methyl‐3‐octadecylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide is shown. This ionic liquid (IL) is able to dissolve triolein/methanol mixtures in many proportions, providing an homogeneous monophasic media suitable for the enzymatic synthesis of biodiesel (up to 96 % yield in 6 h at 60 °C). The enzyme/IL system can be reused for seven operation cycles without any loss in IL phase or enzyme activity. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png ChemSusChem - Chemistry and Sustainability, Energy & Materials Wiley

Abstract

A highly efficient biocatalytic process for biodiesel synthesis in 1‐methyl‐3‐octadecylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide is shown. This ionic liquid (IL) is able to dissolve triolein/methanol mixtures in many proportions, providing an homogeneous monophasic media suitable for the enzymatic synthesis of biodiesel (up to 96 % yield in 6 h at 60 °C). The enzyme/IL system can be reused for seven operation cycles without any loss in IL phase or enzyme activity.
