Abstract

The use of surfactants is extremely widespread for human life. The development of the use of surfactants has not reached detergents anymore, but for drug delivery, biolubricant, emulsifier, cosmetics, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), dispersants and even virus vectors. Unfortunately, the past history of surfactants had given a bad impression since many surfactants are difficult to decompose in nature, are toxic and are not suitable as biological materials. This article will examine the research development and production, syntesis pathway, classification, behaviour and application of N-Acyl amino acid (NAAAc) surfactants. Amino acid based N-Acylamides (AAc) or NAAAc surfactants are next-generation biological surfactants. NAAAc can be synthesized by chemical and enzymatic pathway. NAAAc can also be combined with ionic liquids (ILs) to become green surfactants NAAAc ILs which is low in toxicity unlike conventional ILs. The conclusion of this article studied was NAAc production process that had the highest efficiency so far was the production through a catalytic chemical reaction, namely the fatty acid amidation or amino acid acylation process. The application of AAc-based N-Acylamides is so promising that it can be considered for scale-up processes in the future.

Abstract

The growth of biodiesel production resulted in an increase in by-products in the form of crude glycerol. To increase its economic value, crude glycerol can be further processed into heterogeneous catalysts. The reaction between glycerol and calcium from duck eggshell will produce calcium glyceroxide which is useful in transesterification. In this study, catalyst preparation was carried out by reacting crude glycerol with calcined duck eggshell (700 °C) at a ratio of (1:1) (g) refluxed in methanol solvent. The obtained catalyst was applied to palm oil transesterification at mole ratio (1:12), catalyst concentration 0.4%; 0.7% and 1% (w/w), operating temperatures of 55 °C, 65 °C and 75 °C for 75 minutes. KOH is also used as a comparison catalyst. The analysis of SNI 7182-2015 includes density (40 °C), viscosity (ASTM D-445), acid number (AOCs Cd 3-63), and water content (ASTM D-2709). The optimum conditions according to SNI 7182-2015 are at a temperature of 65 °C and 0.7% catalyst with biodiesel yield of 88.76%, density 889 kg/m3, kinematic viscosity 5.1 mm/s2, acid number 0.5 mg KOH/g and moisture content of 0.0028%.
