T Rostrup-Nielsen et al.
Journal of chemical technology and biotechnology (Oxford, Oxfordshire : 1986), 48(4), 467-482 (1990-01-01)
The kinetics of enzymatic hydrolysis of oleyl oleate in the boundary layer between stagnant organic and aqueous phases was studied using a commercial lipase preparation which was dissolved in the aqueous phase. Three aspects of the reaction were investigated. (1)
J Zhang et al.
Chinese journal of biotechnology, 11(4), 243-251 (1995-01-01)
The effect of 14 different lipases on oleyl oleate synthesis were compared. The lipase from Candida sp.1619 had the highest esterification activity. The lipase was immobilized by adsorbing it on celite with 0.1 (w/w) coconut oil, Tween 80, and 1%
José Aracil et al.
Journal of biotechnology, 124(1), 213-223 (2006-02-21)
A comparative study of the oleyl oleate production using conventional and enzymatic catalysts has been carried out. The present paper describes the flow diagrams for these processes and compares operation conditions for batch reaction and the downstream proceedings. In addition
