Key Points

To optimize a catalytic system for the production of intermediates for sustainable aviation fuel from fermentation-derived oxygenates.
Development of a Pd/C catalyzed alkylation process
Combination of various fermentation-derived oxygenates
Evaluation of product mixture complexity
Successful formation of linear, branched, cyclic, and aromatic hydrocarbons
Optimized conditions yielded increased efficiencies in producing SAF intermediates

Implication

Optimization of catalytic processes produces key intermediates for sustainable aviation fuel from oxygenates, indicating new fuel sources.

Abstract

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, consisting of linear and branched alkanes along with cyclic and aromatic compounds. In this study, an optimised catalytic system formed...
