Abstract
- Present a strategy to upgrade the light fraction of a simulated bio-oil using CeZrOx.
- Investigate influence of furfural, acetol and p-cresol on acetic acid ketonization.
- Elucidate the reaction mechanism for acetol conversion over CeZrOx.
- Upgraded product stream has reduced acid and oxygen content.
- Product stream is appropriate for further upgrading to transportation fuels.
