An optimal continuous production of biodiesel by methanolysis of soybean oil in a packed-bed reactor was developed using immobilized lipase (Novozym 435) as a catalyst in atert-butanol solvent system. Response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behnken design were employed to evaluate the effects of reaction temperature, flow rate, and substrate molar ratio on the molar conversion of biodiesel. The results showed that flow rate and temperature have significant effects on the percentage of molar conversion. On the basis of ridge max analysis, the optimum conditions were as follows: flow rate 0.1 mL/min, temperature52.1∘C, and substrate molar ratio 1 : 4. The predicted and experimental values of molar conversion were83.31±2.07% and82.81±.98%, respectively. Furthermore, the continuous process over 30 days showed no appreciable decrease in the molar conversion. The paper demonstrates the applicability of using immobilized lipase and a packed-bed reactor for continuous biodiesel synthesis.

Ozone is a powerful oxidant, most commonly used for oxidation of alkenes to carbonyls. The synthetic utility of other ozone-mediated reactions is hindered by its high reactivity and propensity to over-oxidize organic molecules, including most solvents. This challenge can largely be mitigated by adsorbing both substrate and ozone onto silica gel, providing a solvent-free oxidation method. In this manuscript, a flow-based packed bed reactor approach is described that provides exceptional control of reaction temperature and time of this reaction to achieve improved control and chemoselectivity over this challenging reaction. A powerful method to oxidize primary amines into nitroalkanes is achieved. Examples of pyridine, C–H bond, and arene oxidations are also demonstrated, confirming the system is generalizable to diverse ozone-mediated processes.<br>
