Abstract:
A hydropyrolysis catalyst and a process using that catalyst are described. The catalyst comprises a support and an active metal component wherein the catalyst is an eggshell type catalyst having the active metal component located in the outer portion of the support.

Claim (Index 1):
A process for converting biomass to products comprising:\n a. contacting the biomass with hydrogen in the presence of a fluidized bed of fresh hydropyrolysis catalyst in a reactor vessel under hydropyrolysis conditions; b. removing products and char from the reactor vessel; c. carrying out the contacting and removing steps for a period of time such that the fresh hydropyrolysis catalyst attrits in the fluidized bed to form small catalyst particles; and d. removing at least a portion of the small catalyst particles with the products and char, wherein the fresh hydropyrolysis catalyst comprises a support and an active metal component and wherein the fresh hydropyrolysis catalyst is an eggshell catalyst having the active metal component located in the outer portion of the support; and wherein the products leave the fluidized bed at an exit bed velocity, the char has a settling velocity that is less than the exit bed velocity, the fresh hydropyrolysis catalyst has a settling velocity that is greater than the exit bed velocity, and the small catalyst particles have a settling velocity that is less than the exit bed velocity.
