“…Hydrodeoxygenation is the most developed process but requires a large supply of hydrogen, which incurs large costs, safety concerns, and negative environmental impacts. , Decarboxylation is an effective alternative which results in the removal of the carboxylate group as carbon dioxide, leaving linear hydrocarbons such as heptadecane (C 17 ). Fatty acid deoxygenation has been widely studied over diverse solid catalysts, including Pt/C, SiO 2 , CeO 2 , zeolites and hydrotalcite, SAPO-11 and chloride Al 2 O 3 , Pd/C, activated carbon, metal nitrates, metal nitrides, supported on γ-Al 2 O 3 , hydrotalcite, Sn hydroxide, Fe, Ni/MgO-Al 2 O 3 , H 3 PO 4 /Al 2 O 3 , and aluminosilicate, titanium, magnesium, zirconium and cerium oxide …”
