Abstract
A reactor system includes a fixed bed reactor that treats a lipid feedstock using a metal oxide catalyst to produce a treated stream comprising a bio-oil. The reactor system includes a ketopyrolyis zone in which the metal oxide catalyst reacts with the lipid feedstock to produce the treated stream. The reactor system can operate in a reaction mode, during which the reactor treats the lipid feedstock, and a regeneration mode, during which coke is burned from the metal oxide catalyst.
