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-methylfuran 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.

Method for converting biomass into liquid fuel

The present invention describes a procedure for the production of liquid fuel having a content high in alkanes and low in oxygenated compounds, comprising as a minimum: a first step of alkylation of 2-methylfuran (commonly denominated Sylvan) with a furan alcohol 2 having the formula: (2), wherein Ris H or an aliphatic or aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety, Ris H or an aliphatic or aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety, and Ris H, hydroxymethyl or an aliphatic or aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety, in the presence of a catalyst, a second step of hydrogenation and dehydration of the compound obtained in step 1 in the presence of hydrogen, utilizing suitable hydrogenation and dehydration catalysts.

Production of liquid fuels (sylvan-liquid-fuels) from 2-methylfuran

The present invention refers to a process for the production of myrtanal from &#x3b2;-pinene epoxide that comprises at least of putting this epoxide in contact with a microporous and crystalline catalyst with pores of a diameter of at least 0.52 nm with an empirical formula for the calcinated and dehydrated form ofH(MTiSnZrSi)O In the present invention, the microporous and crystalline catalyst preferably has pores of at least 0.52 nm and has a crystalline structure with an X-ray diffractogram of a zeolite beta.
