Abstract:
1. A process to produce diesel from vegetable or animal oils by a hydrotreatment process comprising the following steps: a. combining hydrogen with pure vegetable or animal oil or with a combination of hydrocarbons and vegetable oil or animal oil to produce a mixture; b. heating up the mixture of step a in a furnace at a reaction temperature between 280° C. and 450° C. (536° F. to 842° F.); c. passing the mixture from step b through a reactor filled with a catalyst composed of a porous solid material containing active metallic sulphurs deposited on its surface to effect a hydrotreatment reaction at a temperature between 280° C. and 450° C. (536° F. to 842° F.), pressure between 5.0 MPa and 15 MPa, space velocity between 5.1 h d. recovering the product from the previous step in closed containers and separating it by decantation into 3 phases: water, oil, and gasses.
