Triglycerides with a total of 34-44 acyl carbon atoms have previously been shown to account for nearly 50% of bovine milk fat. About 80% of this material was isolated by molecular distillation and a representative fraction of these glycerides was subjected to a stereospecific analysis. Of the 29 moles % of C(4)-C(8) fatty acids present in the analyzed fraction, at least 95% were specifically at...

The present study describes the application of Fischer Tropsch biowaxes as a feedstock in a pilot-scale hydroprocessing unit at operating conditions very similar to industrial size hydrotreating plants of traditional refineries. The project focus on a future coprocessing of biowax/gasoil blends due to produce bio-products derived from lignocellulosic biomass: crack gases, naphtha, kerosene, die...
