Method of converting ethanol to base stock for diesel fuel

摘要

Transformation of ethanol in base for diesel fuel, comprises reacting the ethanol with an amorphous or mainly mesoporous structured acid catalyst i.e. containing >=60% of pores having a size of 2-50 nm, to produce a gas phase, an organic liquid phase and an aqueous liquid phase; and separating the gas phase, the organic liquid phase and the aqueous liquid phase.
