Claim Text:
1. A method for preparing a hydrocarbon composition, comprising: (A) 25 to 90% by volume, based on the total composition of said hydrocarbon composition, of a diesel cut or a blend of diesel cuts having a CFPP of from −15 to 8° C.; and (B) 10 to 75 by volume, based on the total composition of said hydrocarbon composition, of a component of a biological origin, which has a CFPP of from −25 to 5° C., said process comprising: (1) hydrodeoxygenating (C) a mixture of biological origin, comprising esters of fatty acids and optionally aliquots of free fatty acids, to obtain a hydrodeoxygenated mixture; (2) hydroisomerizing at least a portion of said hydrodeoxygenated mixture after optional water and gas flow separation, to obtain (B) said component of a biological origin; and (3) mixing (A) said diesel cut or blend of diesel cuts with (B) said component of a biological origin, wherein: said hydrocarbon composition has a CFPP which is from 1 to 8° C. lower than said CFPP of (A) said diesel cut or blend of diesel cuts, and said hydrocarbon composition has a cloud point which is from 1 to 6° C. lower than the cloud point of (A) said diesel cut or blend of diesel cuts and the cloud point of (B) said component of a biological origin.
