Catalytic Deoxygenation of Hexadecyl Palmitate as a Model Compound of Euglena Oil in H2 and N2 Atmospheres

Hexadecyl palmitate (C15H31COOC16H33, used as a model compound for Euglena oil) was deoxygenated to hydrocarbons over various solid catalysts in autoclave reactors. In a H2 atmosphere, 1 wt.% of Pd/Mg(Al)O catalyst, derived from a hydrotalcite precursor, yielded a C15H31COOC16H33 conversion close to...
