Wu, Kai published the artcileInter-integration reactive distillation with vapor permeation for ethyl levulinate production: Modeling, process analysis and design, Related Products of esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is reactive vapor permeation distillation ethyl levulinate production modeling design.

The reactive-vapor permeation-distillation (R-VP-D) hybrid configuration is a newly designed inter-integration concept firstly proposed for the production of Et levulinate (EL) by esterification of ethanol and levulinic acid in this paper. In the R-VP-D configuration, the VP membrane module is inserted to the reaction section of the reactive distillation (RD) column, of which the product water is in-situ removed by the vapor permeation (VP) to promote the performance of esterification RD process. The proposed R-VP-D configuration is modeled by Aspen Plus V8.4 using the two-dimensional VP model built in ACM, and the inserting position of single or double VP modules is found by contrast trials, where both the conversion rate and purity of product can reach the industrial production standards As a result, the proposed novel R-VP-D configuration is feasible, with > 21.6% and 31.4% reduction in total annual cost and total duty as compared to the configuration which only applies an extra distillation column to separation and recycle the excess ethanol without azeotrope separation, and with 13.5 and 21.5% reduction in TAC and total duty as compared to the hybrid configuration where the vapor permeation is coupled outside the RD column. The result also shows the advantage of the proposed R-VP-D process for potentially leading to the development of new integration processes and applications.

Adi Putra, Zulfan published the artcileProcess design and techno-economic analysis of ethyl levulinate production from carbon dioxide and 1,4-butanediol as an alternative biofuel and fuel additive, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is ethyl levulinate butanediol carbon dioxide techno economic analysis.

Carbon dioxide capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is one of the promising neg. emission technologies. Within various CCUS routes available, CO2 conversion into fuels is one of the attractive options. Currently, most of CO2 conversion into fuels requires hydrogen, which is expensive and consume large energy to produce. Hence, a different route of producing fuel from CO2 by utilizing 1,4-butanediol as the raw material is proposed and evaluated in this study. This alternative route comprises production of levulinic acid from the reaction between CO2 and 1,4-butanediol and production of Et levulinate, an alternative biofuel and biofuel additive, via an esterification reaction of levulinic acid with ethanol. The process is designed and simulated according to the available data and evaluated in terms of its tech. features. Because of the unavailability of reaction data for synthesis of levulinic acid from 1,4-butanediol and CO2, several assumptions were taken, which may implicate the accuracy of the studied design. This tech. evaluation is followed by cost estimations and sensitivity anal. Because of the free CO2, the profitability of the plant depends strongly on the prices of the other chems. and the price difference between 1,4-butanediol and Et levulinate. Monte Carlo simulation indicates that the proposed plant will always be profitable if the Et levulinate is slightly more expensive than the 1,4-butanediol.

Pachamuthu, M. P. published the artcilePreparation of mesoporous stannosilicates SnTUD-1 and catalytic activity in levulinic acid esterification, Synthetic Route of 539-88-8, the main research area is mesoporous stannosilicate SnTUD1 catalytic levulinate esterification.

The direct synthesis of SnTUD-1 with different Si:Sn ratios (100, 50 and 25) by using non-surfactant template triethanolamine (TEA). It functioned as a structure-directing agent and assisted to graft the Sn ions into the TUD-1 silica layer. The physicochem. properties of these materials were examined with XRD, N2 sorption, DR UV-Vis, NH3-TPD, 29Si-NMR, HRTEM, XPS and pyridine adsorbed FT-IR studies, which indicated highly interconnected mesoporous structure with wormhole like morphol. Sn4+ ions were mainly tetrahedrically coordinated with silica; while increase of loading lead to the formation of nanocrystalline SnO2 with different sizes. Materials showed acidity in the range of 0.13-0.31 mmol/g. Synthesized catalysts were tested in the esterification of levulinic acid (LA) with various aliphatic alcs. and exhibited excellent activity. The catalyst was recycled five times without loss of its activity.

Quereshi, Shireen published the artcileSynthesis and Characterization of Zirconia Supported Silicotungstic Acid for Ethyl Levulinate Production, Category: esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is zirconia supported silicotungstate ethyl levulinate preparation.

A Keggin silicotungstic acid (HPS) catalyst was heterogenized by loading (10-40 weight %) over zirconia support, and the resulting catalysts were named ESZN-1 (10 weight %), ESZN-2 (20 weight %), ESZN-3 (30 weight %), and ESZN-4 (40 weight %). After that, synthesized catalysts were characterized using several tools and techniques which revealed that the Keggin structure of the parent HPS catalyst remained intact after heterogenization. Eventually, synthesized catalyst performance evaluation tests were performed for the production of Et levulinate from biomass-derived levulinic acid under microwave heating irradiations. Under optimum operating conditions, more than 90% LA conversion with 100% EL selectivity was obtained at a 110 °C temperature in 30 min in the presence of 100 mg of ESZN-4 in a solution containing levulinic acid and ethanol in a 1:43 ratio. A kinetic study on LA conversion in the presence of the ESZN-4 catalyst revealed a pseudo-first-order mechanism for Et levulinate synthesis.

Guo, Tianmeng published the artcileSelective conversion of biomass-derived levulinic acid to ethyl levulinate catalyzed by metal organic framework (MOF)-supported polyoxometalates, Application of Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is biomass ethyl levulinate metal organic framework MOF supported polyoxometalate.

The esterification of levulinic acid (LA) and ethanol into Et levulinate is an attractive biomass conversion process since the product EL has wide applications as food additive, fragrance and fuel. Herein, a metal-organic framework (MOF)-supported phosphomolybdic acid [Cu-BTC][HPM] was synthesized with 1,3,5-Benzenetricarboxylic acid, copper nitrate and phosphomolybdic acid in a one-step process at ambient temperature The synthesized [Cu-BTC][HPM] was used for the catalytic esterification of levulinic acid to EL in ethanol, and showed excellent activity with a high EL yield close to 100% at 120 °C for 6 h, which should be ascribed to the uniform dispersion of HPM embedded in the MOF. The [Cu-BTC][HPM] catalyst could keep stable crystal structure and active component contents, and thus exhibited good stability in recycling process.

Sabarish, R. published the artcileSynthesis, characterization and evaluations of micro/mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite using starch as bio template, Recommanded Product: Benzyl acetate, the main research area is zeolite esterification benzyl alc acetic acid starch template.

We report a simple and economical method to synthesis hierarchical ZSM-5 zeolite using a natural polymer, soluble starch, as a mesotemplate. The synthesized samples were characterized with X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, field emission SEM, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen sorption, ammonia temperature-programmed desorption and thermogravimetric anal. The crystallinity and Mordenite Framework Inverted structure of the samples was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform IR spectroscopy anal. SEM and transmission electron microscopy images revealed the presence of mesopores in the synthesized samples. The nitrogen adsorption/desorption results of the hierarchical samples have been found to be in agreement with the SEM and transmission electron microscopy results and support the development of mesoporosity. The acidity of the hierarchical zeolite was studied using ammonia temperature-programmed desorption. The thermogravimetric anal. confirmed the thermal stability of the synthesized samples up to 750°C. The catalytic activities of the modified and unmodified zeolites were specifically tested for the esterification of acetic acid with benzyl alc. The results indicate that the hierarchical ZSM-5 catalyst offers a better catalytic yield (76%) than the unmodified systems.
