METHOD OF PROCESSING LIPIDS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC C10L1/00 C10L3/00 C11C3/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of processing fat and fat-containing biomass. The method can be used in producing fuel and intermediate products for organic synthesis. The method is carried out via simultaneous exposure to ionising radiation and temperature of fatty material at normal or low pressure in a fluidised bed to obtain commercially valuable radiolysis products, which are a fuel (primarily diesel fuel) and intermediate products for organic synthesis. The material is exposed to an electron beam with energy of 0.1-8 MeV with dose rate higher than 0.05 kGy/s while heating below the dry distillation (pyrolysis) onset temperature. Alkanising the starting mass, use of catalysts and/or ultrasound can be additional controlling factors depending on composition of the starting material.

EFFECT: high degree of recycling material and output of valuable fractions of fuel hydrocarbons and intermediate products for heavy organic synthesis.
