Judul: Optimasi sintesis monolaurin menggunakan katalis enzim lipase imobil pada circulated packed bed reaktor
Abstrak: Monolaurin is a special food grade monogliceride, which has a function beside as emulsifier and food preservative, also has an ability to destroy Herpes and HIV-1 virus. It was reported that monolaurin had the greatest antimicrobial activity among monoglycerides. Novozyme® 435 catalyze the esterification of lauric acid and glycerol in organic solvent. The purpose of this research were : 1) to obtain optimum condition to synthesis monolaurin using Novozyme® 435; 2) to analyze the stability of Novozyme® Continuous circulated packed bed reactor had residence time of 23,57 minute, glycerol/ oil molar ratio of 5:1, solvent/substrate ratio of 8,8:1, and the process produced MAG up to 80%. Optimization of synthesis MAG obtained quadratic equation which was Y= - 61,700 + 6,088 x 435 in continuous system. Continuous Esterification was employed in circulated packed bed reactor. This research was using Response Surface Methods (RSM) as experimental design and temperature and time reaction were as variables. 1+3,259 x2 – 0,065 x12 + 0,017 x1x2 – 1,792 x22 with R2 = 0,5408, optimum temperature and time reaction of 46,92oC and 1,1 hour, respectively. The product yield was 81,09% and contained MAG of 83,15%. The product had acid value of 1,78±0,08 %, peroxide value of 0,49 ± 0,14 meq O2/kg MAG, free glycerol content of 0,26%, and melting point 53-53,5o C. The enzyme remain stable during 10 reaction cycles and up to 70% produced of MAG at each cycle

Judul: Sintesis Mono-diasilgliserol (M-DAG) dari Destilat Asam Lemak Minyak Sawit (DALMS) Melalui Esterifikasi Enzimatis.
Abstrak: Mono-diacylglycerol (M-DAG) are emulsifiers in food industries with GRAS (Generally recognized as safe) statuta. M-DAG can be synthesized by chemical or enzymatic way. Biosyntheses of M-DAG can be catalyzed by lipase enzyme with three ways; esterification fatty acid with glycerol, hydrolysis triglicerida and transesterification. The objectives of this research was to look for the optimum conditions (solvent, time and temperature reaction) to syntheses of M-DAG by enzymatic esterification of PFAD (Palm Fatty Acid Destilate) and glycerol using lipase. Substrat ratio of PFAD: glycerol in this research was 2 : 3 with 1g of total mass and 4% of lipase from total substrat. This research used a central composite design (CCD) with 20 unit experiments and respon surface model to evaluated the effects of solvent, time and temperature reaction to syntheses of M-DAG. The product of M-DAG were evaluated the physicochemical properties including melting point, free fatty acid and iodine value. The result showed that optimum conditions to syntheses of M-DAG for yield parameter were 54o C, 14 hours and 11 ml of tertier-butanol as solvent and were chosen as optimum conditions for syntheses of M-DAG due to the maximal yield (58%) and high MAG fraction. From statistic analysis, yield parameter model has significantly affected (P= 0,0449< 0,1) and had high coefficient of correlation (r = 0,8591). The verification of the optimum conditions had coefficient of varian 6,66% and 51,66% for yield, which consist of 78,31% with coefficient of varian 8,70% for MAG fraction and 21,69% for DAG fraction with coefficient of varian 31,6%. The melting point of M-DAG was 57,0-62,5o C, free fatty acid content was 0,75% and iodine value was 16,7.
