We propose a 2-step biomass conversion process consisting of solvolysis pretreatment and co-processing with heavy petroleum oil in catalytic cracking. High liquefied yield (> 90 C%) was achieved by solvolysis in guaiacol and water with acetic acid catalysts. Bio-oil was mainly converted to gaseous hydrocarbons and coke by co-processing with model heavy oil (n-eicosane). Deoxygenation pathway to H2O formation was accelerated by enhancing hydrogen-transfer activity even without supplying hydrogen. Hydrogen-transfer deoxygenation proceeded preferentially to olefin hydrogenation. Consequently, enhancing hydrogen-transfer activity in the co-processing of bio-oil and heavy petroleum oil was effective for efficient deoxygenation without lowering octane rating., Article, JOURNAL OF THE JAPAN PETROLEUM INSTITUTE.61(5):302-310(2018)}, pages = {302--310}, title = {Hydrocarbon Fuel Production from Lignocellulosic Biomass by Solvolysis and Catalytic Cracking}, volume = {61}, year = {2018} }
