| Description |
One of the biggest challenge today is to develop universal biodegradable base fluid which could
replace conventional mineral oil base fluids as new generation lubricant. The environmental
acceptability along with biodegradability of such petroleum base fluids including, those
manufactured foiiowir:~modem processes/i.el:iIilologiesprovides a wide potential area for.R&D
'work. A number of approaches to obtain ecofricndly base fluids arc being studied. t \These include'-
;high1yrefined mineral oils, synthetics and vegetable oil base products. ' Traditionalroute to make
high_)'reD; '\ase ('As is through hydro-processing using appropriate feedstocks. To obtain
min~raloil bast i1uid, and synthetic base fluids with high degree of biodegradability one has to
place value on processing scheme, ecofriendly catalysts 'and the routes to be 'adopted for toe
purpose. ' '
This paper addresses two approaches one through which conventionaf" base oils can be
transformed into base oil comparable in properties with highly refined base oils obtained through
,hydroprocess:ng, The other approach covers synthesis'of a large number of di-esters and polyol
esters using conventional and non-conventional (ecofriendly) catalysts with comparable yields.
