Abstract
A process for upgrading a bio-oil stream is disclosed. The process comprises reacting a bio-oil stream with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor to produce an upgraded bio-oil stream. The upgraded bio-oil stream is charged to an FCC unit, a hydroprocessing unit, or a reforming unit to produce an intermediate blend or a fuel stream. A fuel oil stream can be taken from the upgraded bio-oil stream. The catalyst may be separated and recycled to the reactor. The upgraded bio-oil stream can be used directly to produce an intermediate blend or fuel. A fuel oil stream may be taken from the upgraded bio-oil stream.
