The PTA-NiMo/ZSM-5 catalyst impregnated with phosphotungstic acid (PTA) was designed for the transformation of Jatropha oil into benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) aromatics. The produced catalyst was characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the temperature-programmed desorption of...

Abstract Ni-Mg–Al ternary hydrotalcites (HTs) with molar ratio M 2+ (Ni + Mg 2 )/Al = 3, and different content of Ni, Ni0Mg3, Ni2Mg1, Ni3Mg0 were prepared. The HTs calcined then reduced to generate catalysts based on metallic which, used produce green diesel from a mixture stearic palmitic acids at 320 °C 1400 psia H . A reaction scheme was proposed; the main products alkanes n-C17 n-C15. prepa...
