Inventors include Bouchy, Christophe; Tellier, Elodie; Hudebine, Damien; Aragones, Matthieu; and Lopez Garcia, Clementina.
The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.
Abstract: The present invention describes a method for treating a feedstock originating from a renewable source comprising a hydrotreatment step a), a step b) of separation of at least one portion of the effluent resulting from step a) into at least one light fraction and at least one hydrocarbon effluent, a step c) of hydroconversion of the hydrocarbon effluent resulting from step c), using at least one specific bifunctional catalyst comprising at least one noble metal from group VIII selected from among platinum and palladium, and a support comprising at least one zeolite selected from among the MTW zeolites and the IZM-2 zeolite, alone or in a mixture, and at least one binder, a step d) of separation of the effluent resulting from step c), which makes it possible to separate at least one gaseous fraction and at least one hydrocarbon liquid effluent, and a step e) of fractionation of the hydrocarbon effluent resulting from step d) into at least one kerosene cut and at least one heavy cut having an initial boiling point of between 250 and 300°C, wherein all or part of the heavy cut resulting from the step e) is recycled to the hydroconversion step c).
