Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A hydrocarbon conversion process comprises contacting a renewable feedstock under hydroprocessing conditions with a bulk catalyst to form oleochemicals such as fatty alcohols, esters, and normal paraffins. Advantageously, the reaction conditions can be selected to directly convert the renewable feedstock to the desired product(s).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A hydrocarbon conversion process, comprising: a) contacting a renewable feedstock, under hydroprocessing conditions, with a bulk catalyst to form an effluent; and b) recovering a hydrocarbon fraction comprising normal paraffins from the effluent, wherein the hydroprocessing conditions include a temperature of from 491° F. to 662° F. (255° C. to 350° C.) and a total reaction pressure of from 800 to 2000 psig (5.5 to 13.8 MPa gauge).…
