- Fatty acid is a
carboxylic acid with a long unbranched aliphatic tail (chain), which
is either saturated or unsaturated.
- Fatty acids are
merely carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains. The
hydrocarbon chain length may vary from 10-30 carbons.
- Fatty acids are
the building blocks that, with proper selection and application of
oleochemistry, are converted to higher valued products.
- Fatty acids act
as building blocks of lipids. In general, they contain even numbers
of carbon atoms in straight chains ,although the synthases can also
produce odd- and branched chain fatty acids to some extent when
supplied with the appropriate precursors; other substituent groups,
including double bonds, are normally incorporated into the aliphatic
chain later by different enzyme systems .
- The principal raw
materials from which the natural fatty acids are derived are tallow,
crude tall oil, coconut, palm kernel, and soybean oils.
- Fatty acids are
present in fats and oils as glycerides or esters of glycerol except
in sperm oil, where some of the fatty acids are esterified with
fatty alcohols, mainly cetyl alcohol. The fatty acids are released
by hydrolyzing ester linkage.
- The natural fatty
acids are generally aliphatic compounds with a carboxyl group at the
end of a straight carbon chain.
- Coconut oil is
well positioned because it has the unique advantage of having its
fatty acid composition falling within the carbon chain spectrum
highly desired by the oleochemical industry where the C12 and C14
fatty acid fractions are sought after.
- Fatty acid methyl
ester is the starting material for the production of fatty alcohol
and is processed to an active substance in sulfation/ sulfonation
plants.
- Fatty acids are
used as starting materials for soaps, medium-chain triglycerides,
polyol esters, alkanolamides, and many more.
- The fatty acids
produced from the various fat-splitting processes are purified and
separated into fractions or even individual fatty acids by
distillation and fractionation.
- Natural oils,
such as palm oil, and rapeseed oil are good raw materials from which
fatty acids can be produced. The production of fatty acids will,
therefore, be based on imported palm oil which is much cheaper than
the locally available rape seed oil.
- There are two
basic types of processes for the splitting (or hydrolysis) of
natural oils to produce fatty acids. These are batch and continuous
processes.
- There are two
basic types of processes for the splitting (or hydrolysis) of
natural oils to produce fatty acids. These are batch and continuous
processes.
- Fatty acids are
also important raw materials in the production of higher alcohols
and synthetic surfactants.
- The world
production of fatty acids from the hydrolysis of natural fats and
oils totaled about 4 million metric tons per year. Fatty acids are
ultimately consumed in a wide variety of end-use industries (rubber,
plastics, detergents...).
- The future demand
for fatty acid depends mainly on the growth of end user industries.
Hence, future demand for the product is contingent upon growth of
the national economy, especially the manufacturing sector.
- Fatty acid demand
is expected to continue to be strong , fuelled by growth in consumer
products such as cosmetics and plastics. Prices of fatty acids in
Asia are dependent on feedstock palm kernel, palm stearin and crude
palm oil prices and tend to follow the price trends of these raw
materials.
- The rubber
industry consumes large quantities of fatty acids. Mostly, saturated
fatty acids are used as activators, accelerators and softening
agents.
- The textile
industry uses fairly large quantities of fatty acids, largely in the
form of derivatives
