Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods are provided for producing a jet fuel composition from a feedstock comprising a natural oil. The methods comprise reacting the feedstock with a low-weight olefin in the presence of a metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to form a metathesized product. The methods further comprise hydrogenating the metathesized product under conditions sufficient to form a jet fuel composition.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of producing a jet fuel composition comprising: providing a feedstock comprising natural oil glycerides or derivatives thereof, wherein the derivatives are obtained by saponification, esterification, hydrogenation, isomerization, oxidation, reduction, or a combination thereof; reacting the feedstock with a low-weight olefin in the presence of a metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to provide a metathesized product having metathesized gl…
