obtaining integrated monounsaturated alcohols, biodiesel and biodegradable products from process Jojoba oil

摘要

obtaining integrated monounsaturated alcohols, biodiesel and biodegradable products from jojoba process. # jojoba oil is transesterified in the presence of alcohols of low molecular weight and medium using enzymatic, heterogeneous or homogeneous catalysts. The reaction product is subjected to several crystallization steps in a system of pure organic solvents or mixture polar / apolar solvent. # The process allows obtaining different mixtures of unsaturated fatty alcohols high purity as oily liquid useful for delivery transdermal pharmacological agents. As a side product monoalkyl esters usable as biodiesel or biodegradable products are obtained.
