LIDA SIMASATITKUL is an academic who published a paper in 2012 entitled Systematic design of biodiesel and fatty alcohol production process. LIDA SIMASATITKUL published this work as part of a team: Simasatitkul, Lida. Here is a description of this work: Biodiesel is regarded as a promising alternative to a conventional petroleum-based diesel fuel. To reduce any risk for biodiesel producers, who rely only on the biodiesel product, the use of chemicals obtained from the biodiesel production to synthesize other high value-added products, such as fatty alcohol, has gained growing significance. The integration of fatty alcohol and biodiesel production results in a complicated process involving multi-components and various unit operations. The aim of this study is focused on the design and analysis of the production process of biodiesel integrated with fatty alcohol. The study is divided into four parts. In the first part, a systematic step by step methodology is developed for producing biodiesel and fatty alcohol products. A superstructure that includes all possible reaction and separation operations is generated th.
