Resumen


En la presente investigación, se evaluó la producción de biodiesel a partir de aceites de oliva con diferentes concentraciones iniciales de ácidos grasos libres (2,5, 5,0 y 10,0%). Se comparó un proceso de esterificación en dos etapas catalizada con ácido y transesterificación catalizada alcalina (ACT) usando microondas con el método de calentamiento tradicional. Los ácidos grasos libres se redujeron a menos del 2,0% en la primera etapa. Aunque no se observaron diferencias significativas entre los métodos de esterificación, por microondas y tradicional, en términos de reducción de ácidos grasos, sin embargo, el microondas disminuyó significativamente el tiempo de reacción en un 92,5%. La comparación de los resultados de ACT de microondas con los del método de calentamiento tradicional mostró que el microondas puede aumentar significativamente el rendimiento y la pureza del éster metílico, y simultáneamente disminuir el tiempo de reacción. Las constantes físicas de los ésteres metílicos también se mejoraron usando el método de calentamiento por microondas. Por lo tanto, el método de calentamiento por microondas puede considerarse como un método eficiente en lugar de la producción de biodiésel en dos etapas. Este método es capaz de usar aceite de oliva no comestible con altas concentraciones de ácidos grasos libres.
