The Production of Vinyl Acetate Monomer as a Co-Product from the Non-Catalytic Cracking of Soybean Oil

Abstract: Abstract:Valuable chemical by-products can increase the economic viability of renewable transportation fuel facilities while increasing the sustainability of the chemical and associated industries. A study was performed to demonstrate that commercial quality chemical products could be produced using the non-catalytic cracking of crop oils. Using this decomposition technique generates a significant concentration of C2−C10 fatty acids which can be isolated and purified as saleable co-products along with transpor… Show more

“…[3] In addition to these, acetate is widely used in the production of vinyl acetate monomer (VAM), which is a precursor to produce polyvinyl acetate (PVA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH). [4] Acetate is also used in the production of cellulose acetate, which is used in the production of textiles, photographic film, and magnetic tape. Additionally, acetate is used as a food preservative and flavouring agent, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.…”

“…Soybean protein is also among plant proteins of best quality because it contains essential amino acids and holds the potential to replace proteins of animal origin [1]. Recently, the soybean has been claimed as a potential weapon against chronic diseases [2][3][4][5][6][7].…”
