Abstract
⺠Supercritical transesterification of sunflower oil was carried out in a continuous tubular reactor. ⺠The use of pure and azeotropic ethanol as reactant was evaluated. ⺠Density of supercritical mixtures is highly sensitive to operating conditions and composition. ⺠High pressure and temperature data on density of the reactive mixture was modeled with PR-EoS. ⺠The model of reactive mixture density was used to evaluate residence time and reaction kinetics.
