CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM STUDY OF SYSTEMS RELATED TO BIOFUELS – TEACHING EXPERIENCE WITH THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF HYDROGENATION OF VEGETABLE OILS
Total hydrogenation of vegetable oils to yield hydrocarbons is an emerging process for production of biofuels. Some researchers have been chosen tristearate as a model compound to represent vegetable oils in the calculations. The first problem is that its thermodynamic data were not available in lit...
