Research on Catalytic Coupling of Cornus Wisoniana Oil for Biological Rich-Hydrocarbon Fuel

The Cornus wisoniana oils derives from the energy tree species, belonging to woody energy plant oils. This experiment studied the catalytic cracking decarboxylation reaction of Cornus wisoniana oil. Through experiments, CaO / KF made by ourselves was proved to be have good catalytic effect. The highest yield of liquid fuel oil products is at 83.0% or more. Because of high acid value, pyrolysis oil can not be directly burned, this study p-toluenesulfonic acid as a catalyst to conduct esterification alcohol, lower acid value. Then alcohol esterification was used to reducing acid of cracking bio-fuel products and p-Methylbenzene sulfonic acid as catalyst. After reducing the acid, this kind of fuel is closer than traditional fossil fuels, able to alternative to diesel, and to achieve energy conservation.
