METHOD FOR PRODUCING LOW ENVIRONMENTAL LOAD TYPE FUEL AND LOW ENVIRONMENTAL LOAD TYPE FUEL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing an environmental load type fuel having excellent LCA-CO₂ reduction effect, with which a high-quality fuel is efficiently produced from a biomass such as oils and fats having a triglyceride structure and to obtain a low environmental load type fuel useful as a gasoline base material, gas oil base material, kerosene base material, heavy naphtha base material or liquefied petroleum gas base material.;SOLUTION: The method for producing a low environmental load type fuel to solve the problem comprises a process for preparing a raw material oil composed of an oil and fat component derived from an animal or vegetable oil containing a fraction having ≥230°C boiling point and a hydrocracking process for hydrocracking a raw material oil, if necessary, passed through a fixed pretreatment process in the presence of a hydrocracking catalyst containing at least one kind of a metal selected from the group consisting of the group 6A and the group 8 of the periodic table and an acidic inorganic oxide.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
