The present invention provides a novel route for synthesis and production of linear alpha olefins (LAO) and central olefins from the feedstock comprising fatty acids, triglycerides and esters of fatty acids, and mixture thereof through controlled hydrogenolysis, hydrogenation and dehydration reactions simultaneously in a hydro processing reactor containing a catalyst system having dual site&#x2014;a metallic site for hydrogenation/reduction reaction under hydrogen environment, and an acidic site for conversion of alcohol to olefin via E1 or E2 reaction mechanism.

Production of linear alpha olefins

The present invention relates to a additive composition for use as lubricity improver for low sulphur diesel, comprising c) 0.1-10% by weight of ester derivative derived from cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL esters) of formula (I); f) 0.1-10% by weight of ester derivative derived from cashew nut shell liquid of formula (II); g) 50-95% by weight of free fatty acid of the formula RCOOH in which R represents an alkyl/alkenyl group with 12 to 24 carbon atoms. h) 1-30% by weight of synthetic esters derived by esterifying tri, tetra, penta hydric alcohols with carboxylic acids such as lauric, palmitic, linoleic, ricinoleic etc.
