Phenol Deoxygenation over Hydrotreating Catalysts [PDF]
Phenol deoxygenation has been investigated as a model reaction for the deoxygenation of fatty acid methyl esters in biodiesel. Hydrodeoxygenated biodiesel is a drop-in fuel for petroleum diesel, and is a premium diesel with a high cetane number.

Abstract Synthetic jet fuel containing non‐petroleum‐derived kerosene can be produced from synthetic kerosene obtained through processes that include a hydroprocessing step. The potential use of non‐sulphided (reduced) nickel supported on alumina (Ni/Al2O3) was evaluated as an alternative to sulphided catalysts to saturate alkenes in sulphur‐free ...

Alternative Preparation of Improved NiMo-Alumina Deoxygenation Catalysts
This investigation deals with NiMo-alumina hydrotreating catalysts effective in the deoxygenation of rapeseed oil. The main goal was to compare catalyst structure and their deoxygenation performance and to link these parameters to reveal important ...

Two different methods of production of bio-hydrogenated diesel (BHD), simply called green diesel from rice bran oil (RBO), were performed. In the first route, a direct hydrotreating reaction of RBO to BHD catalysed by Pd/Al2O3 was performed in a high ...

Supercritical water deasphalting. Abstract The removal of sulphur from heavy fuel oil (HFO) is essential to address environmental concerns and comply with the stringent regulations imposed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2020. Previously, the acceptable limit for sulphur was 3.5 wt.%, but it was recently changed to 0.5 wt.%.

Life Cycle Assessment of Sweet Sorghum as Feedstock for Second-generation Biofuel Production [PDF]
There exist few life cycle assessments (LCAs) in the literature that focus on the second-generation biofuel production from sweet sorghum, a non-food-source feedstock that offers several advantages in terms of farming requirements compared to corn or ...

This study evaluates the performance and emissions of CI engines using biodiesel blends derived from rice bran and waste cooking oil, revealing that a 30% biodiesel blend significantly reduces emissions, while a 70% blend affects specific engine parameters. ABSTRACT This research investigates the performance, combustion, and emission characteristics of

Seeing Through the “FOG” of U.S. Feedstock Incentives for Transportation Fuels
ABSTRACT The demand for fats, oils, and greases (FOG) as biofuel feedstocks has increased in recent years. Further expansions will have uncertain, but potentially significant, effects on food prices, greenhouse gas emissions, and the U.S. farm economy. To address the market‐mediated effects of expanding FOG feedstock consumption, U.S.

Parametric Study on Intrinsic Reaction for Straight Run Heavy Naphtha Hydrodesulfurization over CoMo/Al2O3 Catalyst [PDF]
The present study aimed to investigate the intrinsic reaction of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) for a real Straight Run Heavy Naphtha (SRHN) over CoMo-S/Al2O3 catalyst in a fixed- bed reactor.
