  1. Neue Produkte auf der Basis von Glycerin Prof. Dr. Arno BehrUniversität Dortmund Nachwachsende Rohstoffe für die ChemieOldenburg, 28. – 29.3.2007

  2. Glycerol by-product in oleochemistry Triglyceride + 3 Methanol → 3 Methylester + Glycerol“Biodiesel“ • 1 t biodiesel • ~ 110 kg crude glycerol • Production of biodiesel in Europe:estimated for 2010: 7 – 8 Mill. t/a • Prize of glycerol:decreasing from 1.300 → 500 €/t

  3. Present applications of glycerol Glycerol Chemical functionalization Direct applications • triesters • glycerol trinitrate • polyether glycols • alkyd resins • pharmaceuticals • cosmetics • soaps • sweetener • moistening of tobacco

  4. Contents Glycerol Alkyl ethers Alkenyl ethers (telomers) Oligomers Polymers Oxidation products Carbonylation products Other derivatives

  5. Glycerol-tertiary-butyl-ethers (GTBE) R1, R2, R3 = H, But [H+] + n [H+]  Acid catalyst Glycerol Isobutene GTBE Monoethers (m-GTBE) n = 1 2-GTBE 1-GTBE Higher ethers (h-GTBE)  diesel-additive n = 2, 3 1,3-GTBE 1,2-GTBE 1,2,3-GTBE

  6. Measurement of kinetics catalyst: p-toluene- sulfonic acid T = 90°C Isobutene : glycerol = 2:1 phase behavior

  7. pTS = p-toluenesulphonic acid R1= recirculation of glycerol, pTS, m-GTBE R2 = recirculation of m-GTBE Process diagram Rectification 75 °C 5 mbar Extraction 30-40 °C 20-30 bar Flash 30-40 °C 1 bar Reactor 70-110 °C 20-30 bar Isobutene recirculation h-GTBE Glycerol Isobutene R1 R2

  9. Glycerol alkenyl ethers (Telomers) Potential applications: detergent precursors

  10. Plant concept for the production of glycerol telomers catalyst: Pd/ TPPTS Triphenylphosphinsulfonate (TPPTS)

  11. Contents Glycerol Alkyl ethers Alkenyl ethers (telomers) Oligomers Polymers Oxidation products Carbonylation products Other derivatives

  12. Glycerol oligomers • The reaction can be carried out both acid and base catalyzed • The acid catalyzed reaction leads to unwanted by-products Applications: foods, cosmetics, pharmacy, educt for glycerol esters

  13. Plant concept for the production of glycerol oligomers Reactive distillation: • Simultaneous reaction and separation within one apparatus • On account of continuous withdrawing of the by-product water the glycerol conversion is increased • A higher selectivity can be achieved because of a defined contact time of the glycerol with the heterogeneous catalyst • But: Difficult to engineer on account of complex relationships between process parameters catalyst:molecular sieves
