Abstract
This study investigated the integration of catalytic cracking and hydrotreating technology for triglyceride deoxygenation, and compared it with direct hydrotreating technology in oxygen removal rate, liquid yield, and the level of hydrogen consumption. The results showed that the performance of acid treated kaolin (ATK) was the best in the fluid catalytic cracking part compared to that of the petroleum commercial catalyst (CC) and the alumina catalyst. The catalytic cracking and hydrotreating integrated technology presented in this work was successfully applied for the deoxygenation of triglycerides. This study provides an energy-economic route for upgrading triglycerides into Drop-in biofuel.
