| 20080281134 | PROPANE UTILIZATION IN DIRECT HYDROTREATING OF OILS AND/OR FATS - Methods for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons from fatty compounds are provided in which at least a portion of the hydrogen required to accomplish the conversion is generated from by-products of the conversion process. Light hydrocarbons, especially propane, produced during the conversion of triglyceride compounds are used to generate hydrogen which is used in the conversion process thereby reducing the need for outside hydrogen sources. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090019763 | HYDROTREATING AND CATALYTIC DEWAXING PROCESS FOR MAKING DIESEL FROM OILS AND/OR FATS - Methods for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons from fatty materials, such as triglyceride compounds, are provided. Hydrocarbon compounds, particularly those boiling in the temperature range of between about 80° F. to about 1000° F., are produced by contacting a fatty material with at least one catalyst comprising cobalt and molybdenum on a zeolite support under hydrotreating conditions. Additional hydrotreating catalysts may also be used to further improve the properties of the hydrocarbon product. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090149684 | Oligomerization of hydrocarbons - Methods of oligomerizing hydrocarbons are disclosed. These methods include contacting olefins with an oligomerization catalyst in an oligomerization zone under oligomerization reaction conditions. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20090266743 | THERMAL TREATMENT OF TRIGLYCERIDES - A triglyceride or a triglyceride/hydrocarbon combination can be heated to produce thermally treated feeds. The thermally treated feeds can then be contacted with a hydrotreating catalyst in a reaction zone. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100099933 | INTEGRATED PROCESS FOR CONVERTING CARBOHYDRATES TO HYDROCARBONS - An integrated process for the conversion of carbohydrate containing materials to gasoline boiling range hydrocarbons is disclosed. A carbohydrate containing material may be converted to a hydrogenated carbohydrate containing material with a bi-functional catalyst. The hydrogenated carbohydrate containing material may be reacted in the presence of another catalyst to form a reaction product containing non-aromatic and aromatic gasoline boiling range hydrocarbons. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20110047866 | REMOVAL OF IMPURITIES FROM OILS AND/OR FATS - Disclosed is a process for removing solids, metals, phosphorus compounds and other impurities from low quality triglyceride containing feedstock. The final treated triglyceride containing feedstock may be converted to fuel range hydrocarbons via hydrotreating process. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110077436 | PRETREATMENT OF OILS AND/OR FATS - Disclosed are methods for pretreating triglyceride containing material prior to contacting with a hydrotreating catalyst to produce fuel range hydrocarbons without causing reactor fouling or catalyst plugging. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110126449 | BLENDED FUEL COMPOSITION HAVING IMPROVED COLD FLOW PROPERTIES - There is provided a fuel composition comprising petroleum based component and a renewable based component, wherein at least 20% of the compounds in said petroleum based component having boiling point range equal or greater than the boiling point of said renewable based component. | 06-02-2011 |
