“…[ 114 ] Naphtha yields increased with increasing time from 36.9 to 46.3 wt.% at 120 min, while the naphthene's and iso‐paraffins concentration decreased to 27.6 and 13.9 wt.%. The effect of reaction time was also studied by Suwannasom et al [ 115 ] from 30 to 180 min to determine the jet fuel optimum yield using palm oil over Ni–Mo/HY zeolite. It was observed that an increase in time from 30 to 120 min increased the jet fuel yield from 24.8% to 30.15%, while with a further increase above 120 min the jet fuel decreased to 19.3%.…”

[ 115 ] Thus, an optimized yield of jet fuel and the desired selectivity of hydrocarbon product can be achieved when an optimum reaction time is known.…”

The high demand for biofuels by surfacing economies with environmental issues has resulted in a more in‐depth search for new biofuel feedstocks. Non‐edible oils have become the centre of investigation as biofuel feedstocks since they do not compete with food sources. This review evaluates hydrocracking as a biofuel production method and further elucidates different feedstocks, the effects of hydrocracking catalysts, and operating parameters to obtain optimum yields and selectivity of desired products. The bifunctional catalyst mechanism is also explained. The hydrocracking technique is found to be more advantageous than other biofuel production techniques such as transesterification and pyrolysis due to its ability to produce valuable products of better quality and with higher yields. Coke formation is one of the challenges faced by hydrocracking despite that it can be reduced by high hydrogen pressure; this will increase the cost of the entire process.
