Equilibrio termodinámico líquido-sólido de ácidos grasos para aceites de palma y palmiste y sus fracciones.

Fatty acids are the basic components of vegetable oils and fats. In the food, oleochemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries and in the production of biodiesel from palm oil, it is very important to know the liquid-solid balance, in order to determine the degree of separation and the quality of the product. In this work a thermodynamic model has been implemented to calculate the balance of liquid-solids in multicomponent mixtures of fatty acids in a wide range of compositions and temperatures. The model was successful in predicting the liquid-solid behaviour of eight mixtures of fatty acids taken from the literature. The identification of the characteristics of the present phenomena is a potential application for modelling of processes in different palm industries by scaling and adjusting the data to real-world conditions.
