![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Glycerol acetals, kinetic study of the reaction between glycerol and formaldehyde Glycerol acetals, kinetic study of the reaction between glycerol and formaldehyde](/preview/png/678040.png)
The acetalization reaction between glycerol and formaldehyde using Amberlyst 47 acidic ion exchange resin was studied. These acetals can be obtained from renewable sources (bioalcohols and bioalcohol derived aldehydes) and seem to be good candidates for different applications such as oxygenated diesel additives. A preliminary kinetic study was performed in a batch stirred tank reactor studying the influence of different process parameters like temperature, feed composition and the stirring speed. A pseudo homogenous kinetic model able to explain the reaction mechanism was adjusted. Thus, the corresponding order of reaction was determined. Amberlyst 47 acidic ion exchange resin showed a fairly good behavior allowing 100% of selectivity towards acetals formation. However, the studied acetalization reaction showed high thermodynamic limitations achieving glycerol conversions around 50% using a stoichiometric feed ratio at 353 K. The product is a mixture of two isomers (1,3-Dioxan-5-ol and 1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol) and the conversion of 1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol into 1,3-Dioxan-5-ol was also observed.
► The reaction between glycerol and acetaldehyde shows thermodynamic limitations.
► Amberlyst 47 ion exchange resins show 100% of selectivity.
► A pseudo-homogeneous kinetic model is able to predict the reaction progress.
► Isomerization reactions were observed from dioxalanes to dioxanes.
