The effect of metal loading over Ni/γ-Al2O3 and Mo/γ-Al2O3 catalysts on reaction routes of hydrodeoxygenation of rubber seed oil for green diesel production
Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of vegetable oil is one of the promising key processes designed for a possible convenient method for automotive clean fuel production. The HDO of rubber seed oil into diesel range hydrocarbon over non-sulphided monometallic (Ni/γ-Al2O3 and Mo/γ-Al2O3) catalysts were invest...
