The catalytic conversion of canola oil was performed at atmospheric pressure with a weight hourly space velocity of 1.0 h(-1) in a fixed-bed reactor at temperatures of 400 degrees C and 450 degrees C over MFI, BEA, and FAU, and with different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios for BEA and FAU. Simulated distillation of the organic liquid product showed that MFI gave the highest gasoline range product (39%, 450 degrees C) and lowest coke (3.2%, 450 degrees C) yields compared to the other zeolites. MFI produced the most C-3 hydrocarbons, while SEA produced the most C(4)s and FAU generated the most C(5)s. As SiO2/Al2O3 in BEA increased from 25 to 300, the gasoline fraction yield increased from 18.5% to 25.0% at 400 degrees C. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
