A theoretical and experimental study was carried out on the biocatalytic production of babassu biodiesel through enzymatic hydroesterification. The complete hydrolysis of babassu oil was carried out using a 1:1 mass solution at 40 °C for 4 h using 0.4% of lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL). Then, with the use of Eversa® Transform 2.0 lipase in the esterification step, a statistical design was used, varying the temperature (25–55 °C), the molar ratio between free fatty acids (FFAs) and methanol (1:1 to 1:9), the percentage of biocatalyst (0.1% to 0.9%), and the reaction time (1–5 h) using the Taguchi method. The ideal reaction levels obtained after the statistical treatment were 5 h of reaction at 40 °C at a molar ratio of 1:5 (FFAs/methanol) using 0.9% of the biocatalyst. These optimal conditions were validated by chromatographic analysis; following the EN 14103 standard, the sample showed an ester concentration of 95.76%. A theoretical study was carried out to evaluate the stability of Eversa with FFAs. It was observed in the molecular docking results that the ligands interacted directly with the catalytic site. Through molecular dynamics studies, it was verified that there were no significant conformational changes in the studied complexes. Theoretical and experimental results show the feasibility of this process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
