Synthesis Of Liquid Fuels From Biomass

US Patent:
2010007, Mar 25, 2010
Filed:
Aug 27, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/548963
Inventors:
Randy D. Cortright - Madison WI, US
Paul G. Blommel - Oregon WI, US
Michael J. Werner - Portage WI, US

International Classification:
C07C 1/20
US Classification:
585251, 585331, 585332
Abstract:
Processes and reactor systems are provided for the conversion of oxygenated hydrocarbons to paraffins useful as liquid fuels. The process involves the conversion of water soluble oxygenated hydrocarbons to oxygenates, such as alcohols, furans, ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, diols, triols, and/or other polyols, followed by the subsequent conversion of the oxygenates to paraffins by dehydration and alkylation. The oxygenated hydrocarbons may originate from any source, but are preferably derived from biomass.
