METHODS OF REFINING NATURAL OILS, AND METHODS OF PRODUCING FUEL COMPOSITIONS

摘要

A method for suppressing dehydrogenation includes reacting an optionally functionalized olefin reactant in a metathesis reaction to form an olefin metathesis product; and providing a dehydrogenation suppression agent in admixture with (a) the olefin metathesis product and/or the optionally functionalized olefin reactant, and (b) a metal-containing material selected from the group consisting of residual metathesis catalyst, a hydrogen transfer agent, and a combination thereof, under conditions that are sufficient to passivate at least a portion of the metal-containing material. Methods of refining natural oils and methods of producing fuel compositions are also described.
