Transesterification of sunflower oil’s triglycerides by aliphatic alcohols С1–С4

Transesterification of sunflower oil triglycerides by C1-C4 aliphatic alcohols in the presence of cation exchange resin KU-2-8 with immobilized divalent metal ions has been studied. It was found that the reaction occurs at a high initial rate and the conversion of triglycerides for 180 min in presence aliphatic alcohols C1– C3 is 88.4–99.8 %. It is shown that under these conditions the rate of transesterification reaction of triglycerides with butan-1-ol is significantly lower and the conversion achieved in 180 min does not exceed 52.3 %. 

Optimization of Heat-and-Power Plants Water Purification

The effect of the content of natural and anthropogenic pollutants (potentially acidic organic substances, synthetic surfactants and petroleum products in water, which is exposed to desalting) on the efficiency of КU-2-8 ion exchangers has been studied. To minimize this negative influence the reagent method was used. Different natural and modified sorbents have been investigated for additional purification of water before filtration on cation-exchange filters or periodic regeneration of ion exchangers by the studied reagents.
