Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing liquid fuel having a high alkane content and a low oxygenized compound content, said method comprising at least: a first step of treating 2-methylfurane with a catalyst and water in reaction conditions in order to form a mixture of products with at least ten carbon atoms; and a second step of catalytic hydrogenation and dehydration of the product or the mixture obtained in step 1, using suitable hydrogenation and dehydration catalysts.
