Biomass-derived lignin to jet fuel range hydrocarbons via aqueous phase hydrodeoxygenation

Abstract

A New Lignin BioJet: Jet fuel-range hydrocarbons (C7–C18) can be produced directly from biomass-derived lignin by selective C–O–C bond cleavage and simultaneous hydrodeoxygenation using combinations of noble metal catalysts (Ru/Al2O3) and acidic zeolites (H+-Y) in the aqueous phase.
