Abstract:
Processes and system for producing biofuels and coproducts are described herein. The system includes a heterogeneous acid catalyst and reactors for reacting a) an alcohol and b) a mixture of a fatty acid glyceride and a fatty acid. The system may further include a pretreatment system and a purification system.

Claim (Index 4):
A system for making a fatty acid alkyl ester, comprising\n a first reactor comprising a heterogeneous acid catalyst; wherein the first reactor is configured to\n receive a mixture comprising an alcohol, a fatty acid glyceride, and a fatty acid; \n perform esterification of fatty acids and transesterification of fatty acid glycerides to produce a first reaction mixture comprising a fatty acid alkyl ester; and \n a second reactor comprising the heterogeneous acid catalyst; wherein the second reactor is configured to\n receive at least a portion of the first reaction mixture and an alcohol; \n perform esterification of fatty acids and transesterification of fatty acid glycerides to produce a second reaction mixture comprising a fatty acid alkyl ester; \n wherein said heterogeneous acid catalyst comprises one or more metals selected from the group consisting of molybdenum (Mo), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr).
