Abstract
The present technology generally relates to a method for producing a naphtha product from a biorenewable feedstock. The method includes hydrotreating the biorenewable feedstock to produce a hydrocarbon product stream, hydrocracking hydrocarbons from the hydrocarbon product stream to produce a distribution of cracked hydrocarbons, and separating a biorenewable naphtha fraction from the distribution of cracked hydrocarbons.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- (a) hydrotreating a biorenewable feedstock to produce a hydrocarbon product stream;
