Ik. Chernova et al., KINETICS OF CATALYTIC-HYDROGENATION OF METHYL-ESTERS OF C-18 FATTY-ACIDS FROM TALL OIL, Russian journal of applied chemistry, 69(6), 1996, pp. 925-927
A kinetic study is made of hydrogenation of methyl esters of fatty aci
ds from tall oil on the heterogeneous palladium catalyst K-PG in a con
tinuous reactor. The reaction mechanism is discussed, and an adequate
mathematical model of the process is proposed.
