Recent advances in the catalytic deoxygenation of plant oils and prototypical fatty acid models compounds: Catalysis, process, and kinetics

• Recent advances in catalytic deoxygenation (CDO) of plant oils and fatty acids are presented. Notable shift CDO works from edible to non-edible as feedstock. Catalysis, process, kinetics discussed detailed. process with situ self-sustaining H 2 system is gaining much interests. Technical challenges future prospects proposed. With the inevitable human innate aspirations for better urban mobility sustainable economic development, bio-based transportation fuels projected play an essential role foreseeable automotive sector. Agricultural-based renewable diesel (RD) prospective fuel tomorrow due its excellent properties environmentally friendly attributes. This review summarises evolution research related upgrading diesel-like hydrocarbons via technologies past decade. Throughout this paper, a strong emphasis put on fundamental chemistry, reaction mechanism, kinetic modelling. The influence key parameters that may affect hydrocarbon product yields/selectivity including types feedstock, catalyst, operating conditions also explicated. paper addresses technical barriers, challenges, could potentially bridge between existing gaps industrial practices these areas. In summary, will help scientific researchers practitioners explore recent potential strategies producing natural acids.
