This study utilizes a 1 L batch reactor at 60 bar and 350 °C for palm oil hydrodeoxygenation over 10 wt Ni/ZSM-5.SAPO-11 catalysts. Si/Al ratio of 50 produces a 10 wt Ni/ZSM-5.SAPO-11 catalyst with the optimum physicochemical properties for palm oil hydrodeoxygenation. TGA/DTG analysis of the spent catalyst shows that the catalyst has good thermal and catalyst stability with minor carbon deposition. GC/MS analysis also demonstrated a 100 palm oil conversion to alternative jet fuel. The highest jet fuel yield of 51 was attained with a Si/Al ratio of 50. The physicochemical properties of alternative jet fuel samples were measured to ensure that the conventional fuel standard limits were appropriately followed. These results indicated that such types of bifunctional Ni-based catalysts have the potential to be used in the conversion of triglycerides to alternative jet fuel. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd date: 2024 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Khan, S. and Qureshi, K.M. and Luyao, Z. and Lup, A.N.K. and Patah, M.F.A. and Chuah, C.Y. and Wan Daud, W.M.A. (2024) Jet fuel production via palm oil hydrodeoxygenation over bifunctional zeolite mixture supported Ni catalyst: Effect of Si/Al ratio.
