A process for producing rosin ester comprises preparing a reaction mixture comprising alcohol and rosin, where the rosin is gum rosin, wood rosin, or tall oil rosin. The process comprises spreading the reaction mixture on a heated surface to form a thin layer (201) of the reaction mixture where the esterification reaction takes place. The process comprises removing, from a gas space adjacent to the layer of the reaction mixture, water and other substances evaporated from the reaction mixture, and removing, from the heated surface, product in which the esterification reaction has produced the rosin ester. As the layer (201) of the reaction mixture is thin, mass transfer paths of water molecules leaving the reaction mixture are short and correspondingly an evaporation surface is large. This makes it possible to maintain a low water concentration in the reaction mixture and thereby to increase reaction speed.

Hydrotreatment of the oxygenated feedstock occurs in a first hydrotreating bed arranged downstream of a polishing bed. A gaseous phase is removed and the liquid hydrotreated phase is fed to the polishing bed arranged upstream of the first hydrotreating bed together with fresh hydrogen. The process effectively removes nitrogen impurities from the resultant hydrocarbon product causing an improved cloud point after isomerisation, and the arrangement makes efficient use of fresh hydrogen for polishing, providing a polished hydrocarbon product rich in dissolved hydrogen. Part of the product can be used as hydrocarbon diluent in the downstream hydrotreating bed, and/or withdrawn between the polishing and hydrotreating bed and isomerised in an isomerisation reactor.

A SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR STORING BIOLOGICAL FEEDSTOCK
A system for storing biological feedstock includes receiving tanks, storage tanks, and at least one slop tank. The biological feedstock is supplied to the receiving tanks from sources external to the system. Fat separated from the biological feedstock is transferred from the receiving tanks to the storage tanks, and sludge deposited on a bottom portion of each receiving tank and on a bottom portion of each storage tank is transferred to the slop tank. Fat separated from the sludge is transferred from the slop tank to the receiving tanks. Biological material is blended from biological feedstocks. The tanks act in different roles to improve the removal of sludge, and increases the yield of desired biological material.
A storage tank system includes a storage tank for storing biological feedstock, a filtering system configured to separate sludge from the biological feedstock, and a water separator configured to separate water from the biological feedstock. A material transfer system transfers biological feedstock from the lower portion of the storage tank via the filtering system to the water separator and, from the water separator, residual biological feedstock from which water has been removed at least partially back to the storage tank. The removal of water reduces unwanted gas generation by microbiological reactions, and safety of the storage tank system is improved.
