This paper studied the cracking process termocatalítico the frying oil in bench and pilot scales, varying the percentage of sodium carbonate catalyst 5 and 10% m / m of raw material used and temperature of 440 º C. The objective was to obtain hydrocarbon mixtures rich in diesel fraction. The frying oil was neutralized and dried characterized in relation to the Acid Value, Saponification, Viscosity, Density and Refractive Index. After cracking, the liquid product obtained was purified by decanting the aqueous phase and simple filtration bench scale. This product was fractionated by fractional distillation and condensate were collected in a separating funnel according to the distillation range of gasoline (40ºC-175ºC), kerosene (175ºC-235ºC), light diesel (235°C-305°C) and heavy diesel (305°C-400°C). Were characterized both physical as chemical composition of the liquid products and their fractions. We also carried out the evolution of the cracking process in pilot scale, with the behavior of physical characteristics and chemical composition of the product formed during the cracking process. The results showed that the catalyst sodium carbonate supplied products of low acidity and good characteristics for use as fuel. The variation in the percentage of catalyst significantly influences the physical and chemical composition of both the product and its fractions. It was found also that the cracking termocatalítico the frying oil promotes the formation of hydrocarbons in rich fraction of diesel (19.16% and 41.18% light diesel heavy diesel to the test with 10% Na2CO3 and 13, 53% light and heavy diesel 52.73% for the test with 5% Na2CO3 ). The time intervals generate the final cracking fuel with low acid content and physicochemical properties according to the specified standard mineral diesel.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-04) ALMEIDA, Hélio da Silva; MENDONÇA, Neyson Martins; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7534816053779593; MACHADO, Nélio Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5698208558551065
This work has the main objective to study the production of biofuels from Thermal-Catalytic Cracking process pilot scale using residual fat removed from the grease traps of the university restaurant of Universidade Federal do Pará (RU-UFPA). The residual fat was collected and treated by sifting, dewatering and separating and introduced into the cracking pilot unit. Were used as catalysts soda ash and red mud thermally activated at 1000 ° C, reject material from the production of alumina Hydro-Alunorte company, which also is an environmental liability. After cracking the organic liquid product obtained was distilled and characterized in the laboratory and pilot scales, obtaining the biofuel Biokerosene band, biogasoline, light and heavy diesel. Additionally, it was investigated the consumption of drinking water of that restaurant and the generation of wastewater, determining the per-capita water consumption, the coefficient of sewage return, the pollution load and the population equivalent. The PLO higher yield of around 82% was obtained with 15% sodium carbonate catalyst. The acid value of the PLO (14.97 mg KOH / g) showed a figure considered low and very satisfactory when compared with the values obtained in the literature. The chromatographic results of the experiment with 10% sodium carbonate showed high content PLO hydrocarbons (78.98%), green kerosene (92.64% of oil) and light diesel (90.21% hydrocarbons). The results denote viability in the production of biofuels from the treated residual fat of the fat boxes.
