This invention provides a method for thermally converting volatile fatty acid (VFA) salts to ketones by mixing dry calcium salts of VFAs with hot heat transfer agent in an evacuated container, thereby causing thermal decomposition of the calcium salts of VFAs to form ketone-containing vapor and calcium carbonate; and separating the ketone- containing vapor from the calcium carbonate and heat transfer agent by condensing a mixture of ketones from the ketone-containing vapor.
L'invention concerne un procédé de transformation thermique de sels d'acides gras volatils en cétones, lequel consiste à mélanger des sels de calcium à l'état sec issus de ces acides gras volatils avec un agent chaud de transfert de chaleur dans un récipient sous vide. Ce procédé entraîne la décomposition thermique des sels de calcium en question, ainsi que la formation de vapeur chargée en cétones et la formation de carbonate de calcium. Ensuite, on sépare ladite vapeur du carbonate de calcium et de l'agent de transfert de chaleur en condensant un mélange de cétones à partir de la vapeur chargée en cétones.
