| Abstract |
Alternative fuels such as biodiesel, bioethanol, biogas and even hydrogen have attracted much interest in the recent era. They have effectiveness enough to replace the use of petroleum fuel according to there are many ways to produce these alternative fuels. One of an interesting implementation to obtain renewable biofuel is hydroprocessing process, which is a catalytic process used in petroleum refinery to remove contaminated components in crude fossil fuel. In this process, H2 react with a large molecule of hydrocarbon under the presentation of catalyst, high desire temperature and pressure and finally renewable hydrocarbons are obtained. Palm oil contained a long-chain hydrocarbon which can be used as raw material for producing biofuel by this process. The product provided from the process can be called as liquid crude biofuel that must be separated by distillation unit to get valuable fuels such as green gasoline, green kerosene and green diesel. In addition, the results obtained after interpretation by Box-Behnken design and using refined-bleached palm oil as a raw material can be revealed that temperature and pressure are the main important factors affecting on hydrocracking reaction (sub-reaction of hydroprocessing process). The optimal condition to get the highest kerosene selectivity is 450°C, 57 bar and the liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) is 1.5 h-1, more than 50% kerosene selectivity was achieved. The carbon atom distribution showed a range of kerosene that was between C11-C13 atoms. Moreover, considering the carbon and hydrogen composition, the green kerosene presented total carbon and total hydrogen was in the scope of hydro-processed kerosene specification at 99.7%. |
