“…Catalytic cracking of vegetable oils and related feedstocks was usually investigated at temperatures in the range 350-550°C (Table 3) under atmospheric pressure in the presence of alumina [94][95][96], zeolites [89,91,[96][97][98][99][100][101][102][103][104], amorphous aluminosilicates [91,96,101], mesoporous molecular sieves [92,102,105,106], micro/mesoporous materials [93,103,107], aluminophosphates [101,108] and sulfated zirconia [109,110]. In addition to acidic catalysts, the performance of basic oxides, such as MgO and CaO was studied as well [94,96].…”

Catalytic deoxygenation of triglycerides and related feedstocks for production of biofuels is reviewed in this paper. Green diesel, triglyceride-based hydrocarbons in diesel boiling range, is an attractive alternative to biodiesel-a product of transesterification of vegetable oils, particularly due to its superior fuel properties and full compatibility with current diesel fuels. Two basic approaches to production of green diesel-(i) hydrodeoxygenation of triglycerides and related compounds over metal sulfide catalysts and (ii) deoxygenation over supported noble metal catalysts are thoroughly discussed from the point of view of reaction conditions, catalyst composition and reaction pathways and products. Furthermore, catalytic cracking of triglycerides and related feedstocks over microporous and mesoporous catalysts is reviewed as well. It constitutes an interesting alternative to deoxygenation using hydrotreating and noble metal catalysts as it does not consume hydrogen. It provides a wide spectrum of products reaching from olefins to green gasoline and diesel.

“…The production of biofuel from palm oil has been extensively studied using zeolites as the cracking catalysts [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Zeolite ZSM-5 has remarkable properties and performance in FCC process [9], and MCM-41 mesoporous material are reported as promising and selective catalysts [2,3] for biofuel production in the catalytic cracking of palm oil due to higher diffusivity of bulky molecules [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8].…”

Catalytic Vapor Cracking for Improvement of Bio-Oil Quality

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Bio-oil has attracted considerable interest as a promising renewable energy resource because it can be utilized as a feedstock in integrated bio-refineries for the production of highly valuable chemicals and next-generation hydrocarbon fuels. However, it is necessary to improve the bio-oil quality before it can be fed to bio-refineries. Currently, catalytic vapor cracking seems a more attractive process than catalytic upgrading technologies, such as hydrotreating and esterification, in order to improve the bio-oil quality. This review presents a summary of recent research and the state of art technology for the catalytic vapor cracking of bio-oil, focusing on the catalysts applied, upgrading methods and reaction mechanisms.
