Publication number: 20160298054Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing soap from fatty and resin acids, in particular from tall oil fatty acid comprising resin acids. The method is based on a process in which the water conventionally utilized for saponification is partially replaced with a solvent that decreases the viscosity of the reaction mixture and results in a high dry matter content of the reaction product. An object of the invention is also a composition comprising fatty and resin acid soap and its use as a disinfectant or antiseptic agent.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2014Publication date: October 13, 2016Applicant: Forchem OyInventors: Mikko RINTOLA, Juha ORTE

Patent number: 8865922Abstract: A method of treating tall oil pitch, which comprises sterol esters of fatty acids. According to the present invention, the esters of sterols and fatty acids are broken down, in which case especially formic acid esters or acetic acid esters of sterols are formed instead. The free fatty acids and sterol esters generated are distilled or separated in another way. Use of the present invention increases the yield of fatty acids and also facilitates the separation of sterols from tall oil pitch.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2011Date of Patent: October 21, 2014Assignee: Forchem OyInventors: Esko Kiviranta, Juhani Saviainen, Mikko Rintola

Publication number: 20130041192Abstract: A method of treating tall oil pitch. In the present method, part of the fatty acids and the resin acids are released from their sterol esters and wood alcohol esters and converted into methanol esters or ethanol esters. The transesterified products are removed from the pitch by evaporation and then condensed, and by hydrogenating the generated condensate the acids are decarboxylated and the double bonds are satisfied. It is possible to use the present method to produce automotive fuel from tall oil pitch.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2011Publication date: February 14, 2013Applicant: FORCHEM OYInventors: Juhani Saviainen, Mikko Rintola, Timo Saarenko

Patent number: 8338633Abstract: A method of processing wood oil which is generated during pulping. In the method, low molecular weight carboxyl acid that is approximately 0.5-5.0% of the wood oil quantity (weight) is added to that wood oil early in its separation stage, in order to esterify the alcohol groups present in the wood oil, by the said acid. The protective esterification according to the present invention prevents the esterification of the alcohol groups by the fatty acids naturally present in the wood oil.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2008Date of Patent: December 25, 2012Assignee: Forchem OyInventor: Esko Kiviranta

Patent number: 7208570Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of refining crude tall oil. According to the method, the crude tall oil is fed into a column distiller, where it is separated into desired fractions. The conditions of the column distiller are adjusted on the basis of the composition of the feed and the product flow. According to the present invention, the densities of the crude tall oil fed into the column distiller and of at least one product flow are measured accurately as a function of the temperature. The density values are compared with correlation coefficients derived from the chemical compositions of the flows, coefficients which are obtained on the basis of laboratory analyses made earlier from corresponding flows, by using temperature compensation to specify the correlations, and by taking account of the regular variation in the wood composition of fresh wood according to the annual cycle and, as a result, the compositions of the flows are achieved.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2005Date of Patent: April 24, 2007Assignee: Forchem OyInventor: Juhani Saviainen
