Abstract
A catalyst structure includes a porous support structure, where the support structure includes an aluminosilicate material and any two or more metals loaded in the porous support structure selected from Ga, Ag, Mo, Zn, Co and Ce. The catalyst structure is used in a hydrocarbon upgrading process that is conducted in the presence of methane, nitrogen or hydrogen.

A method of upgrading a bio oil, the method comprising:
- receiving a feedstock of a first bio-oil, wherein the first bio-oil is obtained from pyrolysis of a biomass;
- and
- reacting the first bio-oil in a reactor in the presence a catalyst structure to produce a second bio-oil, the second bio-oil having an oxygen content that is less than an oxygen content of the first bio-oil;
- wherein:
- the catalyst structure comprises a porous support structure comprising an aluminosilicate material, and two or more metals loaded in the porous support structure, the two or more metals selected from the group consisting of Ga, Ag, Mo, Zn, Co and Ce, wherein each metal loaded in the porous support structure is present in an amount from about 0.1 wt % to about 20 wt %.
