Abstract
This study investigates the simultaneous separation process using a batch reactor coupled to a cellulose acetate membrane for the enzymatic hydrolysis of residual soybean oil. The membrane was manufactured with 30 s pre‐evaporation time and 1‐mm thickness. Their morphologies and wettability were analyzed. Pichia pastoris lipase was characterized based on temperature and pH and was applied to the hydrolysis of residual soybean oil at 45 °C and pH 7 in batches, with and without simultaneous separation. The results show that the process efficiency with the cellulose acetate membrane resulted in 55.58 % ± 2.78 % free fatty acids in enzymatic hydrolysis, compared with 39.72 % ± 1.99 % without the membrane. The membrane also achieved 100 % oil rejection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
