Abstract: | A statistical method for evaluation of catalysts was used to determine the behavior of palladium catalyst for soybean oil
hydrogenation. Empirical models were developed that predict the rate,trans-isomer formation, and selectivity over a range of practical reaction conditions. Two target iodine value (IV) ranges were
studied: one range for a liquid salad oil and the other for a margarine basestock. Although palladium has very high activity,
it offered no special advantage intrans-isomer formation or selectivity. Palladium can substitute for nickel catalyst, at greatly reduced temperature and catalyst
concentrations, for production of salad oil or margarine basestock from soybean oil.
