Analysis and synthesis of kinetic parameters of soapstocksaponification stage in sunflower oil production

Abstract

The parametric identification of the saponification experimental process is performed as a multi-stage stationary reaction with linear kinetics, characterized by adequate model estimates. It is revealed that for the saponification reaction, the kinetic curve (the change in the saponification degree from time to time) is characterized by three stages: the first induction period, the second period of constant velocity, and the period of falling velocity. The process intensification ways are justified by reducing the induction period in the ultrasound field. Experimental numerical results on modeling the dependence of the reaction rate of constants saponification are presented as the process kinetics.
