Biojet fuel production via deoxygenation of crude palm kernel oil using Pt/C as catalyst in a continuous fixed bed reactor

This work focused on the conversion of crude palm kernel oil (CPKO) to biojet fuel via deoxygenation reaction in a fixed bed reactor. The catalyst was Pt supported on activated carbon (Pt/C). The investigation involved the effects of various operating parameters such as reaction temperature (350–420...
