Justification and development of mode and parameters of the process biodiesel obtaining from fat waste using the enzyme lipase catalyst

The possibility of biodiesel obtaining from fat-containing wastes generated during processing of aquatic organisms and oil of the food processing production has been examined. The possibility of transesterification of fish oil and sunflower oil with ethanol using the enzyme lipase as a catalyst has been established. Biodiesel with qualitative indices, relevant to the requirements of State Standard 53605–2009 has been obtained. On the basis of the research there has been drawn a conclusion about the possible use of lipase as a catalyst during the transesterification of fish oils and used oil into ethyl ether.
