With the worsening environmental problems caused by the greenhouse effect, the study of fuel alternatives generated by non-fossil sources has intensifi ed. The incorporation of biodiesel (mono-ester of triglycerides) to petroleum diesel is an example of commercial application for reduction in the emission of fossil CO 2 and sOx and nOx as well. in this context, the generation of mixture of hydrocarbons for catalytic cracking of vegetable oils combines the advantages of the Transesterifi cation process to generate compounds such as petroleum-derived fuels such as: gasoline, kerosene and diesel. This review presents current trends in scientifi c literature for biofuels from thermal (pyrolysis) and catalytic processing. For the pyrolysis it has been described the temperatures use to obtain the fuel in the diesel range. the catalytic processing involves the heterogeneous catalysts used in the processing crude oil and the conditions of temperature and pressure. in conclusion it is showed that the cracking catalytic process allows chose what fuel does one want simply changing the catalytic that is used.Keywords: Biofuels, Pyrolysis, Hydroprocessing, vegetable oils. Producción de biocombustibles por medio de los procesos termocatalíticos de aceites vegetales: una reseña resuMenCon el empeoramiento de los problemas ambientales causados por el efecto invernadero, el estudio de combustibles alternativos generados por fuentes so fósiles ha sido intensifi cado. La incorporación de biodiesel (mono-éster de triglicéridos) a diesel de petróleo es un ejemplo de una aplicación comercial para la reducción en la emisión de CO2 fósil, sOx al igual que nOx. en este contexto, la generación de mezclas de hidrocarburos para craqueo catalítico de aceites vegetales combina las ventajas de los procesos de Transesterifi cación para generar componentes como los combustibles derivados del petróleo, como: gasolina, kerosene y diesel. esta reseña presenta las tendencias actuales en la literatura científi ca para procesos térmicos (pirolisis) y catalíticos en los biocombustibles. Para la pirolisis se han descrito las temperaturas usadas para obtener el combustible en los rangos de diesel. Los procesos catalíticos implican los catalizadores heterogéneos usados en el procesamiento del crudo y las condiciones de presión y temperatura. en conclusión se muestra que el proceso de craqueo catalítico permite elegir que combustible puede buscarse simplemente cambiando la catálisis que es usada.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
