Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are processes for producing a lube basestock or wax from a feedstock of biological origin, the method including: providing a fatty acid originated from the feedstock of biological origin and an aromatic acid in a solvent comprising a base; and electrically coupling the fatty acid and the aromatic acid to produce a hydrocarbon, wherein the molar concentration of the fatty acid is greater than the molar concentration of the aromatic acid.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for producing a lube basestock or wax from a feedstock of biological origin, the method comprising: providing a fatty acid originated from the feedstock of biological origin and a di- or tri-carboxylic acid in a solvent comprising a base; and electrochemically coupling the fatty acid and the di- or tri-carboxylic acid to produce a lube basestock or wax, wherein the molar concentration of the fatty acid is greater than the molar concentration of…
