The catalytic cracking of ginger oil in a fixed-bed tubular reactor with a weight hourly space velocity 1.0h −1 at temperatures ranging from 300°C to 450°C has been accomplished over zeolites MFI, BEA, and FAU having different SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratios. Gasoline fraction yields have been observed along with liquid, gas, and coke yields. Trends in the various yields have...
Phytol, a diterpene alcohol found in many plants, has been subjected to catalytic cracking and a large enough sample for ASTM gasoline analysis has been obtained. The product shows a high octane number and meets many of the ASTM requirements for gasoline. Such a process represents a renewable route to motor fuels.
Myrcene and limonene were hydrogenated to their fully saturated forms, 2,6-dimethyloctane and 1-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexane, respectively. Mixtures of diesel fuel and up to 10% of each saturated hydrocarbon were tested by ASTM D975 to evaluate the 2,6-dimethyloctane and 1-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexane as diesel fuel additives. The results showed that all tested mixtures were within the acceptable...
