Abstract

In order to obtain a fuel with properties similar to diesel, the thermal catalytic cracking (TCC) of buriti oil was accomplished over LaSBA-15 mesoporous materials. In function of the Lewis acid sites and the unidirectional pore system of the LaSBA-15, this material presented good deoxygenating activity for TCC of the oil, resulting in a reduction of the oxygenate content in the organic liquid (OL) collected above 190 °C, obtaining as main product, a mixture of hydrocarbons similar to mineral diesel, called green diesel.
