Title:
A PROCESS FOR THE DEHYDRATION OF AQUEOUS BIO-DERIVED TERMINAL ALCOHOLS TO TERMINAL ALKENES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/032550
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for dehydrating bio-1-alcohols to bio-1-alkenes with high selectivity are disclosed. A dehydration catalyst for dehydrating bio-1-alcohols and method of forming the dehydration catalyst are also disclosed. The bio-1-alkenes are useful in preparing high flashpoint diesel and jet biofuels which are useful to civilian and military applications. Furthermore, the bio-1-alkenes may be converted to biolubricants useful in the transportation sector and other areas requiring high purity/thermally stable lubricants.
