Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

A study has been made of coconut oil hydrocatalysis mechanisms at 280C and 5 MPa initial hydrogen pressure over 1 h reaction time in the presence of the catalysts NiWS/Al2O3, NiMo/Al2O3, NiMoS/Al2O3, CoMo/Al2O3, and CoMoS/Al2O3. It is proved that under these conditions decarbonylation/decarboxylation reactions predominate on NiWS/Al2O3, decarbonylation/ decarboxylation and deoxygenation reactions compete on NiMo/Al2O3 and NiMoS/Al2O3, and deoxygenation reactions predominate on CoMo/Al2O3 and CoMoS/Al2O3 catalysts. It is shown that sulfidation of the catalyst facilitates hydrogenation reactions.
